Without DeLay: Say Good-bye to Tom

Without DeLay: Say Good-bye to Tom

I've been watching duck-walking Tom Delay waddle his way around politics for the past 30 years, so seeing him leaving public office is priceless.

I've often noticed his walk, which is distinctive. He's got a wiggle, what my grandmother would have called a "sashay." So I wrote this to say good-bye to him.

1. Whoa, THAT'S deadly right on;

I think the walk is his mind's compensation for the evil in him.

3. He's always seemed so smugly self-satisfied ...

and that's what we looking to capture

the walk has little Charlie Chaplin in it, a good liberal if there ever was one!

6. truthfully, I think it's sort of because he's knock kneed

there's a recent clip of him walking away, and that prompted me to write this one

look for it the next time they show a wide shot of him walking towards the camera or away from it

5. ya know, a poster was saying a few days ago ...

... that certain uses of language can be unknowingly offensive to gays

I appreciate your posting, but I was thinking that might be one of those comments they were talking about. Just sayin

7. you just reminded me why I rarely post here anymore at DU

someone is usually taking an issue with what you write. I guess that is the problem with dems is they can't just get along with eachother. no wonder the Repukes are in charge.
