Tom DeLay to Quit Dancing with the Stars
http://tvwatch.people.com/2009/10/06/tom-delay-to-quit-dancing-with-the-stars/

It’s the end of the road for Tom DeLay.

Sources tell PEOPLE that the former Republican House Majority Leader will withdraw from Dancing with the Stars on Tuesday’s live results show due to stress fractures in both of his feet.

DeLay was advised by doctors and the show’s producers not to perform on Monday’s show, but decided to go ahead with his samba with partner Cheryl Burke, saying on the broadcast, “What’s a little pain when we can party?”

By the end of the night, though, DeLay told PEOPLE he was paying the price for the performance. “They’re starting to tell me I shouldn’t have done this,” he said of his feet, which were dressed in orthopedic booties after the show. “I ice them. I’ve got a bone stimulator machine that I put on them.”

The politician was lauded by the judges for his effort but did not score well, finishing second-to-last with just 15 points.

Why is he not in jail?

1. That outfit he was wearing was punishment.

But not punishment enough, of course.

2. "Why is he not in jail?"
That's the one and only thing that goes through my mind any time I hear that fucktard's name.

And I haven't heard an answer from anyone yet.

4. Agree. I DID hear recently that there are still "ongoing investigations",
so hopefully justice will be served.

Why do you hate me? Was it really necessary to give me that visual? Haven't I always been nice to you?
