Tom DeLay: "The president will be overturned"

"Politically, for the president, it is a huge mistake for him to be defending this decision. The president will be overturned," said U.S. Rep. Tom DeLay, the former number two Republican in the House of Representatives.

3. Now This Really Smells
If you've got this rat on board, jump ship...FAST! Definitely, the fix is in!

Here's DeLay's horse to ride...along with other Congressional Repugnicans...Rove's gift and our Trojan Horse. Yep...the Repugnicans will fight and piss and moan. The regime will huff and puff and threaten a veto...then back down as a "compromise" is found...an "American" company will be found to handle this job. Be assured that company will have some financial connections to the Carlisle group...and a greatful nation will gladly throw tax breaks and financial bail outs at the company to make it "competitive". Repugnicans will all parade around how they "stood up for national security" and this regime will laugh, once again...to the bank.

It's also a way for these goons to "distance" themselves from booosh but still stay on the reservation. They can pretend to be bucking the "big man" while it's all one big wink and a nod.
