HOUSTON, Texas (AP) -- Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay's just-published memoirs skewer his former comrades in the historic 1994 Republican revolution for squandering the victory through useless and ineffective leadership.

DeLay's book, "No Retreat, No Surrender," which hit bookstores this weekend, singles out former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and Dick Armey, DeLay's predecessor as House majority leader. Former President Clinton is described as "slimy," and President Bush is dismissed as "compassionate, but ... certainly no conservative."

Only DeLay's wife and daughter escape unscathed.

DeLay, dogged by charges of money laundering in Texas, resigned from Congress last June and is awaiting trial.

1. AHAHAh AahhHAAHA HAAHAH !!!!HAH!H !H!H!!

:rofl:

Stop, Tom, you're killing me!

[flashlighter]

2. Which disgraced and indicted irrelevant Republican congressman is

he? The average American has GOT to be confusing them by now...

[yellowcanine]

3. Kind of like a skunk telling a badger he stinks.

[Catherine Vincent]

4. How dare that Mother Sucker!

:mad:

[mod mom]

5. The exterminator needs to crawl back into the hole with the rest of the roachs

and STFU.

[blitzen]

6. hey Delay, tell the 100,000 dead Iraqis that Bush is "compassionate"...

and tell the people of New Orleans, who have been handed a privatized (non)recovery rather than help from the federal government, that he's not "conservative"!

[unkachuck]

7. now wait a minute....

....that slimy bugman ought to know slime when he sees it....

[opihimoimoi]

8. Yikes, he continues to make a FOOL of HIMSELF....I swear, everytime he opens his orffice

shit comes out...and it seems, there is no end in sight...

Is there a FOOLS RECOVERY REHAB PROGRAM???? That Tom could enroll in????

[stevedeshazer]

9. He's just humping his book

The new Ollie North.

Pretty soon he'll have a radio or TV talk show.

I say by June.

[XOKCowboy]

10. Well he's the King Of Slime

Ain't it funny that it took Delay, Starr and their inquisition hundreds of millions of dollars or OUR money to investigate the Big Dog and they couldn't even get a conviction yet one little prosecutor in Texas nailed his SLIMY butt with just the rule of law?

BTW I think that Meredith Viera took him to school on the Today show this morning. Had him sputtering like a motorboat.

11. more projection from Delay. I hear Idi Amin thought Tom was a swell guy.

[SeattleGirl]

12. If the BugMan says it, it must be so!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[w4rma]

13. Takes one to know one. (nt)

[agincourt]

14. This book should be considered a joke book,

if it weren't for the fact that Delay is not behind bars where he should be. OJ's "How I would have done it" is more factual.

[lpbk2713]

15. I don't think BugMan is bright enough to author a book.

In fact he has probably never read an entire book any longer than My Pet Goat in his lifetime.

I tend to think someone made him a deal. One in which DeLay would get a small portion of the royalties of a body of work written by a ghost writer.

[lebkuchen]

16. Why is Delay still allowed to breathe on the public's airwaves?

[donheld]

17. Delay knows slime better than anybody.

[FVZA_Colonel]

18. Now isn't that a case of the pot... oh forget it, you know how it goes.

N/T.

[WinkyDink]

19. No, how DOES it go? That Clinton is the kettle? As in, he's slimy but so is DeLay?

[Norrin Radd]

20. Through the thick coating of it dripping onto his eyes from his skin, everything appears slimy. n/t

[Raksha]

21. Do I hear a pot talking?

Seems to be saying something about the kettle being black...

[Grandrose]

22. Shut up DeLay.....

your picture is in the dictionary next to "slimy", among
other disgusting words!! :puke: :grr:

[Bridget Burke]

23. Houston Chronicle Front Page Headline: "His New Bully Pulpits"

Above a huge picture of DeLay's slimy mug. What a way to start the day--all over the Greater Houston area! (Online, the wording is a bit different.)

DeLay blares revamped message with new bully pulpits

WASHINGTON — Largely quiet since resigning from Congress last summer under indictment, former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay is back with a vengeance.

The Republican from Sugar Land is popping up in bookstores, on the Internet and the airwaves with a conservative call to arms: Democrats are hurtling America down the wrong track, but Republicans won't defeat them until they learn to better articulate their message.

"Fight. Fight," DeLay advised embattled Attorney General Alberto Gonzales during an appearance Tuesday on NBC's Today show.

Asked by the interviewer if he himself hadn't given up the fight when he quit Congress, DeLay replied: "No. I just changed arenas."
