What reason did "This Week" have Tom Felon Delay on?
Shame on them once again to granting air time to that low life, hateful carpet bagger and parasite.

As I was watching, I kept thinking why is George Stephanopolous casually interviewing, laughing with, and enabling a thief and crook as if all is peachy and as if Delay shouldn't have his arse behind bars in the pokey for life?

I also wondered if Delay had taken a couple (or ten nips) from the flask before air time. Maybe it was the Oxycontin?

I think to engage in granting positive PR to a natural disaster like Tom Delay, who has clearly engaged in the raping and assaulting of our country and all Americans, should speak volumes about the networks which would allow such an interview to occur.

1. that's what I was wondering.... but if the Mediawhores can rehabilitate
Liddy etc, they'll probably always stoop lower for the next GOPer.

2. George S. has all the symptoms of an abused spouse. When Clinton
assured him that there was no basis to the Monica controversy he went out in front of the public and 'stood by his man'. Then when the truth came out, he was devastated. I don't think his bitterness will ever wear off. He apparently took it worse than Hillary. It sure as hell sent his trolly of the tracks.

4. when I saw DeLay appear...
...I changed the channel!! That criminal does not speak with any authority and so I knew I wouldn't be missing anything if I didn't hear what he said.

5. You missed a pathetic appearance; he looked pale and
appeared flustered, making shit up as he went along. Then, Howard Dean followed and was brilliant, making da bugman appear even more pathetic. :)

9. I saw Dean
He seemed very confident!! I loved it when he responded to Mehlman's comment.

I'm glad Dean put DeLay to shame!

6. From the network that gave the Matthew Shepard killers a voice.
20/20 and that "reporter," Vargas gave them a national platform. They took away Matthew Shepard's voice yet leave it to ABC to give convicted murderers a voice.

Reporters should never give credibility to people who have proven that they have no credibility through the crimes that they've committed.
