Folks who have been around here for a while know that I spent the better part of my life writing for a local newspaper saying that Tom DeLay was a crook.  Come to find out, I was right.

It was fun because it was a newspaper that went to his house.  I was also right about him being a womanizer, a drunk, a hypocrite, a vindictive self serving little man, and a flaming sanctimonious nincompoop.   I gave him the name Hot Tub Tom and it stuck and I’m proud.

Now, and this is totally true and serious, this arrived at Bubba’s writ twit office yesterday.

It is an application for a Chase credit card for my business.

But, notice who it’s for —-

No, really.  Take another look.

Now, either somebody at Chase has a sense of humor, or – and this might well be the trick – this completely explains why Chase went bankrupt and needed a bailout  – they are giving a line of credit to a fictional character and a convicted felon.

Dude, that ain’t too big to fail.  That, my friend, is too dumb to bail.

Now, I am highly tempted to open this line of credit and go buy the entire inventory of Sharia Law’s Adult Bookstore and Naughty Novelties in Tom and Juanita’s name.  Or maybe even the score by taking Jack Abramoff on a free trip to Scotland to play golf and send the bill to Tom.

Bubba says I need to get a DBA as Tom Delay and Juanita.  He says he’d rent me a backroom at his Writ Twit Palace for a very reasonable price for me to run Tom and Juanita’s Bleeding Heart Knee Jerk Liberal Food Bank and Hourly Hot Tub Rentals.  Tom, of course, would do the hot tub part.

I am going to have such fun filling out this application ….
