Tom DeLay is drinking again.

I can promise you that.

Questions for your theme:

1.  Then who wrote the Magna Carta?

    #1-it wasn’t a wingnut that wrote the MC #2-no and no

  2. well, there goes THAT column – looks like I’ll have to do one on Christie, after all.

    1) Robin Hood wrote the Magna Carta – come on, it was evil King John who was forced to sign it, who else could have written it?

    2a) The rules to baseball wrote themselves
    2b) Damn Straight!

    But if God wrote the Constitution, even HE stated there should be no religious test to hold office

    …and if He wrote the Constitution, then why do we need Amendments?

  3. I thought the Constitution was delivered to us on golden plates carried by an angel.

    Oh, wait. That’s Mitt Romney’s Constitution. The Tea Party’s was delivered written on toilet paper and carried by Ted Nugent.

  4. @ LynnN . . . KEYBOARD! You owe me one.

  5. Tom De Lay does not drink any more. Course he doesn’t drink any less either.

    1. Magna Carta: 26 barons who were in open rebellion against King John. Then a Death Star came and … oh … never mind.

    2. Rules of baseball were written on stone tables nearby a burning Flatbush in Brooklyn.

    3. jus’ talking about Shaft: finest in ’70s blaxploitation “Shut yo’ mouth!”

    5
  6. The thought that God created Tom DeLay is downright depressing.

    More likely he’s the result of a drunken knee trembler up against the back wall outside a Laredo honky tonk.

  7. The Magna Carta was written by a bunch of wealthy English barons who didn’t like King John’s habit of taking over their lands. It was meant to protect “free men”, not women nor the poor. Much like our Constitution, it was a flawed document which needed the Bill of Rights to include all of us. We all know the Repugs want to go back to the original version, so claiming that God wrote it strengthens their position. Unfortunately, ex-cons like DeLay lack the gravitas to pull it off.

  8. Charles Phillips says:

    The Magma Carte was obviously written by Satan, since it’s all about takers, not makers, and the idea that ANYONE other than God The Son decreed the rules of baseball is ludicrous!

    The theme from Shaft, however was most definitely NOT God’s creation. You’re thinking of Eye of The Tiger.

  9. Michael Lavender says:

    I know for a fact that God did NOT write the rules for baseball. If He had, the first time anyone tried to invoke the abomination known as the Designated Hitter Rule, every baseball stadium in America would be reduced to a smoldering heap of barely cooling brimstone.

    9
  10. Union Gen. Abner Doubleday is credited with the creation of the game of baseball in a cow pasture in Cooperstown, N.Y., and also with firing the first shot in the Battle for Ft. Sumter, at the beginning of the Civil War.
    (aka The War of Northern Aggression)Sure would love to see the pious Mr. Deelay high-steppin’ through that cow pasture while Gen. Doubleday takes pot shots at him.

    10
  11. No way God wrote the Constitution. If she had, it would have been perfect, not needing 27 amendments.

    11
  12. Isaac Hayes might have a thing or two to say about his Shaft score.

    12
  13. Marcia in CO says:

    What a combination: DeLay and Hagee!!

    They are seriously demented and throw crazy-eyed Michelle Bachmann into the mix since she’s saying every white person who voted for Obama did it out of GUILT!!

    These are wondrous times in the Kingdom!!!

    13
  14. If God could write the Constitution, how come He couldn’t make Toxic Tommy an honest man?

    14
  15. Oh Good Grief! Everybody knows Kevin Cosner wrote the rules of baseball. Just watch all those movies.

    On the Constitution..Since it made sense….. my money would be on Ben Franklin.

    As far as Tom DeLay is concerned. It’s spring. All kinds of creepy, crawley things, come out from under the rocks where they have been hiding. Hi Tom!

    Like Michelle Bachmann….. she used to be somebody.
    Tom DeLay….. also used to be somebody.

    Now… they need to be totally, and completely ignored, because neither is any longer relevant to current times.

    JMHO.

  16. I don’t think it’s polite to stare at mentally ill people when they start foaming off in public.

    16
  17. Marge Wood says:

    Staring ain’t polite but calling the police and social workers might be helpful. DeLay also said God spoke directly to him. You kin interpret that any way you like.

    Maryelle-you’ll have to get an appointment to visit Isaac Hayes. I’m not sure when the Pearly Gates swing open. 2008, if I remember correctly. RIP.

    Maybe god did write the constitution,since it is

    open to such wingnut re-interpretation,just like the bible.

    Hayes wrote the soundtrack to the movie. Can you dig it?

    18
  19. Polite Kool Marxist says:

    Old Tom sure went institutional. First Congress, then prison, now hearing voices. He’s fishing for a cot with the mentally ill.

    Career track for a Republican, crook, criminal and criminally insane. Loopy Louie, here’s your future and that of your fellow gohmerts.

  20. W. C. Peterson says:

    I always thought Thomas Jefferson wrote the Constitution, and Jefferson certainly wasn’t thought of as a Christian. More Unitarian.

    20
  21. Doesn’t seem to remember that the opposite of a “secular government” is…Sharia law?

    Does seem to be able to recall bible verses pretty easily, but I’m thinking Constitutional articles and amendments…not so much…

    21
  22. This is what I wrote God.
    ‘Thanks for the Constitution. Call Tom home now please!”

  23. Aggieland liz says:

    Richard Roundtree was FINE! And he looked great in those mod turtlenecks that were all the rage back then, sigh! I dont think a cop show exists that I wasn’t addicted to… Emergency, too!! With Randolph Mantooth!

    What year was Shaft y’all?

    23
  24. Elise Von Holten says:

    1971 for “Shaft” , I hate to say I never saw it…I lived a more sheltered life back then. I am worried, and more worried about it all. Is there anything we can do to get God to call these nuts home? I would go on a prayer fest if that would help!

    24
  25. Polite Kool Marxist says:

    Elise Von Holten, the lovely lady, god, says: “nyet.” Those gohmerts are not her fault. She recommends calling Satan at 1-800-dam-nfoo, to let him clean up his own mess.

    Upon calling said number, Satan answered and replied: “nope, not my mess, and no room at the inn for gohmerts.”

    Seems the Republican gohmerts will be residing in Purgatory, as no one wants them.

    However, considering the high price of jail, it’s only fair they bunk with the Bushes, Cheneys, Palins and Reince Priebus, until their number is called. All overflow should be directed to Karl Rove.

  26. TexasEllen says:

    God didn’t make any 3/5 people and only politicians busy compromising could have come up with such a silly concept. God 1, DeLay 0.

  27. Polite Kool Marxist says:

    We can’t chat among ourselves without a daily dose of Fun with Guns. The NRA gohmert never stops, But this is special. Challenged version.

    SANFORD, Fla. —A legally blind man who was acquitted in the shooting death of another man fought in court Thursday to get his guns back.

    Gohmert, gohmert, and gohmert, when the 2nd Amendment trumps reason.

    Florida would probably suspend the man’s driving license, but what the gohmert, let him have a gun.

  28. Aggieland liz says:

    Lord in 1971 I was 7! Precocious!!

    Think the Rethugs mebbe go to “limbeaughx” when they drag their knuckles off this mortal coil?

    28
  29. What can be expected from Hot Tub Tommy?
    God would not have written the score for Shaft. God may have written the score for Super Fly TNT.

    Heaven doesn’t want him and hell won’t have him. Purgatory is getting a might crowded. Looks like we are stuck with Bieber,as well.
    Uganda could use Delay as a consultant for the gubmint as to what to do with Gays now that U.S. christian groups got a law passed that outlaws Gays there. He could be their newest wingnut dictator-Idiot Man instead of Idi Amin. Could also change the country’s name from Uganda to RW Propaganda.

  31. Here’s Isaac to speak for his ownself. The intro is pretty long. watch at least until Hayes sheds his coat of many colors. The announcer is a very young Jessie Jackson.

  32. There are two kinds of people who cite God to prove everything: Those who need to be told what to do and those who want to tell them (for their own purposes). The first kind should learn to think and the second kind are scary, in a carnival kind of way.

  33. @W. C. Peterson

    Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence. The Constitution was written by a committee. (So much for committees never accomplishing anything…..! ;-> )

    Jefferson’s religion: “I am of a sect by myself, as far as I know.” “Question with boldness even the existence of a god; because, if there be one, he must more approve the homage of reason, than that of blindfolded fear.” More: http://www.monticello.org/site/research-and-collections/jeffersons-religious-beliefs

  34. Wa Skeptic says:

    While visiting at Monticello I passed through Mr. Jefferson’s library; there was his bible, with the things he’d accepted as true written out and the rest of the New Testament was discarded. The remaining pages were a much smaller stack of paper.

  35. Sam in Kyle says:

    I don’t know about politics but my understanding is that Tom and Nugent both have a history with underage girls. Kind of hard for someone like DeLay to claim any knowledge of God.
