DeLay Tells Audience That Democrats Have 'No Class' |

DeLay is such a class act himself. ----------------------- DeLay Tells Audience That Democrats Have 'No Class'
House Majority Leader Has Been Dogged By Ethics Questions
POSTED: 10:59 pm EDT May 12, 2005
WASHINGTON -- House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, facing an audience of conservative well-wishers, is firing back at Democrats by calling them members of a party with no ideas and "no class."
The Texas congressman's supporters staged a high-profile show of support by throwing a $250-a-plate gala in his honor Thursday night in Washington.
DeLay, who's been dogged by ethics questions, was hailed by other speakers for his leadership in the Republican Party and the House.
When he spoke, DeLay made only a passing reference to the problems that have sparked calls for an ethics probe.
Instead, DeLay told the crowd that as Republicans helped Americans find jobs and helped the country recover from the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, Democrats offered the country nothing.
Nearly 900 people showed up for the gala. Organizers said the money will be used to pay for the event.http://www.wral.com/news/4484598/detail.html

But if it had been in Durham, he certainly wouldn't have had 900 people show up for him.
Maybe 900 to show up to protest him!

9. I think Miss Manners would say that proclaiming people have "no class" |
|
is an immediate sign of having "no class" yourself.

8. the arrogance of power |

Just wait, little man. Dem ideas are going to bite you--you'll see. No class, indeed. You can always tell what a person is insecure about by the insults they think up.
This one's worried about having ideas and class. heehee.

10. I promise you I have more class in my little finger |
|
than DeLay has in his whole body.
And I guarantee you I engage in ethical and moral behavior 100% more than he does.

11. I love this: Organizers said the money will be used to pay for the event. |
|
250 a plate is the cost? Nothing left over?
Pockets *will* get lined ....... or bail met.
Hey Tommy .... anybody have seconds?

Most of them deal with stealing money, raising money, laundering money - mostly illegal stuff with money.

17. I hate this schmuck.... |

NO CLASS. Nice. DeLay is scum. DeLay is toilet scum. DeLay is the parasite that exists to feed solely on toilet scum.
Therefore, that makes DeLay uniquely qualified to recognize "class".
My question is this however...
WHAT KIND OF MUTANT WOULD SPEND TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS TO SEE THIS WORM SAY ANYTHING OTHER THAN "GUILTY YOUR HONOR" ???
I swear I'm living in some kind of freakin' Star Trek episode.
