Oh Tom, You’re Leaving a Slime Trail Again

October 12, 2012 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

So Tom DeLay is appealing his conviction.

His theory is that he did not use actual money in committing this crime; he used a check.  The law law says you can’t laundry money.  But, he didn’t.  He used a check instead of cash so … ta da! … no crime.

Holy technicality on the back of a writ twit!  Checks aren’t money?  Well, does that mean when I write a check to the phone company they will not take actual money out of my bank account?

If checks are not money, how come the more I write, the less money I have?

Lord, what a pitiful excuse for a man.  And where does he find these lawyers and why does he give them money?  Oh wait, maybe he’s giving them checks.  Oh, I get it now.

Be social and share!

  1. How is it that the judges have not laughed at this man and his lawyers? Is there such a thing as frivolous appeals (like frivolous lawsuits)? Lock him up already.

    How did he find a lawyer who would go along with this nonsense?

  3. Part of his group tried this here in an Austin court and Ronnie Earle handed their ass back to them on a plate. If I remember right it went to the Texas (Republican) Supreme Court and even they wouldn’t “buy” it.

    He must be giving his lawyers post-dated checks. That’s the ticket.

    One of the Holly Books needs a rewrite. “Justice should be swift and decisive”. Tom has been screwing up the message.

    The good news is that Tom’s slime trail saves Texas the expense of a monitoring anklet, but it does pose the possibility
    of nasty falls by innocent passersbys.

    I couldn’t help thinking about a Tina Turner/Little Milton song,

    If checks ain’t money…
    “Grits ain’t groceries
    Eggs ain’t poultry
    And Mona Lisa was a man.”

    I saw an article last week where Tom was touting his Second Baptist membership. That’s how you can tell he’s desperate; when he pulls out the religion card. There’s an easier chance of Jesus curing someone of leprosy than curing Tom of hypocrisy.

    Maybe he’ll get to learn about a different kind of laundering when he finally goes to jail.

  10. DeLay should be cleaning dirty toilets in a prison.

  11. Oh good lord! Has the former exterminator gone back to drinking the bug killer again?

    A very large slug comes into my laundry room occasionally (through a gap under the door to the back porch) and eats bits of spilled dry cat food. I’ve seen him twice (I take him back outside – I hate slugs, but I can’t kill anything) but I know he’s been there when I see shiny slime trails on the linoleum.

    Now I think I’ll name him Tom.

    Thanks! 🙂

    The real crime is that I live in a liberal (real) Austin neighborhood, and because of this POS inserting his lizard brain into the redistricting process, forcing me to share a district with the biggest plutocrats of North Houston, I now have McCaul, scion to the Clear Channel Conservative Radio Toiletries empire, as my member of congress instead of a liberal like my actual community wants.

    Lock DeLay up with no delay.

    One can only wonder who or what group may be giving money to DeLay to help him keep justice at bay.

    What? Did he not allow his pest control customers to pay him with checks back in the day, because after all, according to him, checks aren’t money?

    What a stupid, arrogant fool. Hope he gets a nice long time away.
