DeLay Issues Threats

[CatWoman]

DeLay just released this statement:

Mrs. Schiavo's death is a moral poverty and a legal tragedy. This loss happened because our legal system did not protect the people who need protection most, and that will change. The time will come for the men responsible for this to answer for their behavior, but not today. Today we grieve, we pray, and we hope to God this fate never befalls another. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Schindlers and with Terri Schiavo's friends in this time of deep sorrow.

Make no mistake about it: Tom DeLay, our Majority Leader, is now threatening judges, doctors and Terri Schiavo's husband.

1. Is he gonna pay for murdering his father?

I mean, i know it was a respirator and not a feeding tube...but hes still a killer too.

[shoelace414]

2. who's going to be responsible

if someone does end up acting outside the law.

I know who won't take any responsibility...

3. HEY TOM DELAY

GO CHENEY YOURSELF YOU HYPOCRITE!

[Animy44]

4. What the fuc* is wrong with this man?

Issuing a thiny veiled threat in a condolence message?? How can anybody support this man?

[katinmn]

7. he's just desperate to turn the attention off him and his

many legal and ethical problems

[LSparkle]

10. Agreed

6. What a SICK bastard!

BRILLIANT move DeLay, firing up your violent fundie cult. This whole situation makes me ill.

*GOP memo stating this was a chance to fire up their "prolife" base
*DeLay grandstanding during an emergency weekend US Congressional hearing
*Bush's "prolife" support for Terri's family (ie RANDALL TERRY)
*Jeb's support for this fundie cult

:puke:

8. Delay pours gasoline on the fire via a "condolence" statement

That's right, Tom, keep inciting your ultraviolent following. Who knows what they might do?

[oasis]

9. Jeb and Dubya flip flopped on Terri. The ultimate betrayal. After giving

the Schiavo family hope, they failed to deliver when the polls turned against them.

Delay should go after the two flip floppers first.

11. If anyone could identify "moral poverty" it's Delay

Since that is his way of life. Even though he doesn't see it here his own moral poverty compels him to falsely accuse someone else.

12. OMG! They're gonna have a field day with this

on the Breaking News forum: Pope given last rites. If he dies today, the religious freaks are gonna party hearty! I can just hear it now:

"The Pope hung on so Terri could go first"
"They died on the same day. Let the revelation begin"

etc, etc, etc. :bounce:

[hector459]

15. All they can really say is "this is the will of God."

What else can they say. To say anything else is to confess that man is more powerful than God.

[Just Me]

13. I read that earlier. Unbelievable just how openly they threaten these

days. Will they take responsibility for the violence their inflamatory rhetoric provokes?

Delay is just,...such an ass!!!

I hope that man is ruined. I cannot help myself.

[jojo54]

14. As for DeLay, he should lay low

http://www.democrats.org/

He's not looking real good in a lot of people's eyes right now.

[CatWoman]

20. bwahahahahaha

[jojo54]

22. Hey, how'd you do that?

Do tell, please. I want to put pics on my posts too but I don't know how.

[CatWoman]

23. place your mouse on the picture

and right click.

choose "properties".

copy the properties address.

paste it into your text.

it's a good idea to use the "preview" function (at the bottom of the text window) to see if you've posted your pic correctly.

[Snotcicles]

16. I think an arrest warrant is in order. He is clearly a dangerous anarchist

[Mz Pip]

17. Bring it on

you worthless piece of crap.

What an opportunitic jerk. He's got to keep his face in the limelight somehow. He really needed this so he could appear all noble and moral. What a roach.

:dem:

[Just Me]

21. Well, he doesn't appear noble/moral. He comes off as a total ass.

I'll bet judges across the whole country are really disgusted by him and his ilk of conspirators! I mean, good grief, he's attacking ALL judges, even Republican conservative ones.

I just know this man's career is OVER!!! And he knows it and the desperation is seeping out in the form of outright radicalism.

[fishnfla]

18. the men

the man says keep your fucking face out of my life

[Lone_Star_Dem]

19. What a scummy jerk that man is.

I'm not shocked or even surprised by him using this womans death to threaten people. It's the kind of person he is.

[demo dutch]

24. That man needs to be put away!!
