2. WONDERFUL!
Sorry but I was yelling!

I just had the pleasure of running to the door when my husband came home and jumping up and down while I gave him the news. It is always fun to watch someone break out into an ear to ear grin.

It might already be cordoned off with crime scene tape by now. You know, just to preserve the evidence.

I can hardly wait till tomorrow's news programs when all the talking heads start their spinning about WHY he quit. I'm so happy, I'm giddy!!

12. All of Abramhof's money
can't save you now!

There are some things money can't buy.

DeLay learned this the hard way.

Priceless.

17. Now he can spend more quality time with his lawyer--er I mean his family.
I wonder if the Republicans pushed him overboard or if Abramoff is singing to the feds.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
