Tom DeLay cuts and runs.
What a chicken *hit.

He knew his constituents had had enough and he decided to quit. He had no support from his grassroots, he had no one to block walk for him, parents wouldnt let their kids walk around with a DeLay shirt on.

So he quit. Quiter.

3. Yes he did!
I nearly fell over when I heard it last night. Every picture of tom DeLay should now be accompanied by chicken noises. No, wait, don't insult the chickens like that.

4. I might not win, so I'm not going to run.
That should be the Pukes' theme this year.

:rofl:

5. You are getting ever closer to seeing him in that striped suit!
That has got to put a smile on the Johncoby mug this morning! Kind of a shame, you looked pretty good in it yourself (only at large though)

7. But remember....according to Tom
The "librul media" is making him quit! It's all their fault! I wish the "librul media" would play that quote over and over again so everyone could get a good laugh as Tommy blames all his trouble on others!

9. You know whose fault it is?
the minorities who took his and Dan Quayle's place in the service, so that they couldn't serve in Vietnam (he seriously said this) - had it not been for them, he woulda been a marine, and we know from Mean Jean that Marines don't cut and run.

11. He's a chicken*hit alright, but what he's really afraid of...
is going to jail. He's going to have to spend millions of dollars defending himself, and probably his wife too.
If he cuts now, he can use all his campaign money for legal defense, hence this selfless act on behalf of his party. :sarcasm:

12. No.... his main staffer Rush just decided to turn states evidence
That's why he quit. He knows the shit is going to hit the fan for him and all his close buddies. Funny how the great majority of those being investigated for corruption are Delay Staffers.
