Tom DeLay: A Portrait of Evil... Er, Everything Wrong with Politics Today

Sorry, but evil applies just as well. That man has to be the smarmiest human being I've ever had the delight not to know personally.

Daily Kos has a brief profile of a baaa.....aaaaa......aaaaaa.....aaaaa....aaaaad man.

Tom DeLay, 12/21/2005:

    What a difference a decade makes.
