Tom DeLay resigning
 

I expected him to fight to the end....I quess that's how it goes when you're all talk and no action....looks like the hammer was made of cheap glass.

What gets me mad is, if he KNEW he was guilty, why didn't he be a man and resign from the start? Politicians on both side of the aisle who pull that really yank my chain!

He doesn't admit to being guilty. He's not that stupid. He's still under indictment for some felony charges.

I was involved in politics long enough to know that
"I'm not guilty" + indictment + resignation = presumed guilt.

Of course he can't admit it yet. There may be 12 people in a jury box who will fall for his line.

You're a nurse.

Where in the world did you get that? I am a geriatric counselor, but grew up in a political familyl & worked in the political arena from the time I was 18!

I have no idea what the difference between geriatric counselor and nurse are, but I'm sure you came from a good family and maybe volunteered on a campaign but I don't think it qualified you to be a political pundit.

Either way you don't know, have nothing at this point to back up your statement, and that article made no mention of that.

-Rudey

Since you don't know the difference between a counselor and a nurse, I sincerely hope you never end up in a hospital.

Having worked on the Presidential Advance Team, and in the White House, I would consider myself qualified to speak on political matters. I could go further with my credentials, but I don't feel that I need to qualify myself to you.

As for backing up my statement, I have history on my side, ie: Watergate.

Janitors work in the white house as well.

And, again, you have nothing to back up what you are talking about.

Liars will be punished by the lord.

Lying is the least of my problems.

Well I'm a sweet fella so I'll pray that you solve all of your problems, including lying :)

-Rudey
--Good luck!

HoneyChile....I can't believe that you would lie in our graves!

you big liggity liggity liggity liar!

Anecdotal evidence is neither 'strong' nor supportive.

Also, it appears that the Presidential Advance Team is actually a coordination position, setting up sites for presidential visits (including motorcade routes, hotels, site visits, etc) - so I'm not exactly sure what this provides you beyond the layman to discuss the connection between 'resignation' and 'proof of wrongdoing' but feel free to enlighten me.

I think it's similar to when she brings up her half black cousin or her christian cousin that she pretends is Jewish to qualify her words.

The Demize of Tom DeLay!

He Was an Egotistical F! Maybe no more so than some others of the I am A Legislaturer.

Hei s still a F and took $ for Power!

Screw Him, Go To Jail and See what The Real Life is! He was given a Trust by The People Who Voted Him Into Office and Then He Betrayed Them!:mad:

Just How Many More are Out There doing The Same Thing!:rolleyes:

It is a Profession, Not an Avocation!:eek:

Personal attacks.........

If you think that there are personal attacks, feel free to use the 'report post to mod' button.

He has trouble understanding that it was one of two liberal moderators that closed a thread bashing Bush.

I've worked a lot with Presidential Advance Teams -- and while they can sometimes be a pain in the rear, they're generally pretty politically savvy.
