I just love the irony.
Great.
I want a photo! I also want to put it on a T-shirt with the following question above his photo. "Hey Tom, what are you going to do after the arraignment?" and on the bottom of the picture, I'd add. "I'm going to Disney World"!
MAKE THE CALL!!

This is just tooo good! LOL I love it!
Let them waste their money. We are going to help DeLay.
A smart marketing person should jump on this idea while it's hot.
"So the demonrats have decided to hit below the belt. Now they have Delay's picture on Clinton's underwear:"
Which proves that they will never have Delay by the balls!
If those were Clinton's, they'd have skidmarks and other assorted "stains".
Now, THAT'S FUNNY !
YEAH! Great idea. I'd be glad to buy a T-shirt or how about this;
A mug shot coffee mug??
Great fundraising idea, and show support for one of the best guys we have in office.
And rubbing the lefties noses in their own poop this way would be icing on the cake. :-)

Delay spoke with reporters at the Texas Capitol Friday after his hearing with Judge Perkins.
###TRANSCRIPT ###
Rep. Tom DeLay
Texas State Capitol Remarks
October 21, 2005
Good morning. Thank you for this opportunity to speak with you all.
This morning I appeared before the court and emphatically stated what I have maintained all along during this unfortunate episode: I have committed NO WRONGDOING. I know that, and more importantly, Ronnie Earle knows it.
You may be surprised to hear me say this, but I find this to be a good day. Today I was provided the opportunity to go before the Court and refute these baseless charges that are the result of a political vendetta being acted out by Ronnie Earle.
Unfortunately for Ronnie Earle, the facts and the law are on MY SIDE.
The ONLY reason I had to stand in that courtroom today was because Ronnie Earle has abused his prosecutorial power and pursued these contrived and baseless charges.
Because of actions that I took through the democratic process to rid this very legislature of years of unfair gerrymandering by Texas Democrats, I became a target of Ronnie Earle.
Because I was successful in exercising my right to be involved in a political process that elected more Republicans, I became a target of Ronnie Earle.
And because Ronnie Earle and the Democratic Party could not beat me at the ballot box, could not beat me on the floor of the House of Representatives, they are now desperately trying to challenge me in a courtroom.
In short, I have been charged for defeating Democrats, advocating constitutional representation, and advancing the Republican agenda.
Ronnie Earle and the Democrat campaign behind him will be unsuccessful. I will fight this prosecutor's abuse of the legal system and I will be absolutely exonerated.
I will not let a prosecutor who pursues his political enemies by abusing the law and manufacturing baseless charges wreck our justice system. Grand jury shopping and make-the-law-up-as-you-go injustice by the District Attorney will not rule the day. The facts and the law will rule the day.
A fair trial with an impartial jury will look at the facts and understand that—without a doubt-I committed no wrongdoing whatsoever.
I look forward to presenting the facts and putting my faith in the law in order to welcome my inevitable exoneration.
Thank you once again for this opportunity to talk with you all. Have a nice day.
Decent suit and tie: $250.00+
Legal costs to fight a prolonged legal battle and endictment: $50,000+
Turning a sure negative mugshot into a political asset that your enemies can't use against you: PRICELESS!!!
I LOVE IT!!!
Sounds like a fundraiser to me.
Thanks for the TX numbers, Rosie.
Good thread, Doug. Thanks.
The man I spoke to said they didn't have any pictures, so I suggested they get some ASAP, as a brilliant PR move.
Bumkicking-wise.
He directed me to this:
