Tom DeLay was just on Hardball pushing his book, and received the obligatory fellatio that Chris Matthews seems to reserve for disgraced former pols. The book apparently highlights DeLay’s recovery from alcoholism (he cops to swilling 10-12 martinis and driving home on a regular basis, as well as cheating on his wife), which he attributes to his being saved by Christ.
Which is all well and good, but I am not sure why MSNBC needs to reserve primetime hours for the rehabilition of crooks and thugs- Stanley “Tookie” Williams was also saved by Christ, but apparently did not deserve a primetime slot. Regardless, despite being saved, DeLay managed to devote a portion of his on-air rehab to Clinton bashing, calling him slimy and attacking his character.
I guess DeLay hasn’t worked his way up to the Gospel of St. Matthew.
And yes, there really was no point to this post other than to offer me a platform to once again shit all over Tom DeLay, who I think embodies everything that is wrong with the current GOP.
