Fabulous quote from Democracy Fest re: Tom DeLay

[VelmaD]

I heard this in one of the sessions on defeating Tom DeLay and had to share it with the class. One of the panelists made reference to the DeLay quote where he said, "I am the federal government." The guy sitting next to me (cos from Cambridge, MA) turned to me and said, "If Tom DeLay is the federal government...can we get Grover Norquist to drown him in a bathtub?"

Now that's comedy. :)

2. That's a good one!

Unfortunately only a few politically active people know the source of that quote....but I'm trying my damnedest to broaden that base.

Thanks for the humor ...it's needed!

4. We gotta be able to laugh about this shit

I know what you mean about only a few people knowing enough to "get it". I figured anyone that informed and that funny at the same time was worth getting to know. :)

5. When I tell the guy who said it...
