A Crass Act

When not being indicted for influence peddling, Tom DeLay's working on a little affluence effluent peddling and proving he's got class. [Please imagine me demonstrating DeLay's massive classiness w/ "jazzhands" and a little Vaudeville two-step. Yeah!]

"Everybody Likes Beaver".

Serving as a celebrity auctioneer for the Safari Club, DeLay pitched a sheared beaver pelt vest by asking, "Who wants a beaver?" Then he declared: "Everybody likes beaver, even women." On a roll, DeLay then said -- depending on whom you ask -- that "the best thing" about the vest is that it's either "a sheared beaver" or "a shaved beaver."

Looking out at North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr, DeLay said, "Sen. Burr, they don’t have beaver like this down in North Carolina."

DeLay's daughter said her father was simply selling the item that needed to be sold. He "could have made a joke about a shaved zebra, but that’s not what the item was," she said. "It was what it was."

It depends on what the meaning of 'was' was?

The Repugs give nary a thought to those outside their circle, do they? They just roll along, crass and crude, bigoted, piggish, braying about this and that, and no one calls them on it. Let a Democrat say this. Oh, please! Dobson, Falwell, Robertson, and that other one, what's-his-name, Tony-something, the shiny one, will fall over each other to proclaim their offense on behalf of the children, bemoan the obvious hating of Murka, apple pie, and mom that it implies, and self-righteously shudder w/ disgust at the sick, sick depravity of it all. Mm hmm.

Having said that, I'd want to kick any Dumbocrats ass who said this, too. That's not my point. My point is this: Shut the hell up, assholes. We've had enough braying and bloviating for this lifetime. Keep your lame, gimp-along titillation to yourselves. And P.S., your entendres are too feeble even to qualify as doubles. Feh.

Thank you, thank you for saying what I've been thinking. The arrogance and hypocracy is making me so ill that I can't even blog about it. Thank you for telling it like it is. Was it you or someone else who ran a picture of a protester awhile ago with a sign that said, 'Would someone give Bush a blowjob so we could impeach him?" Amazing that there is no justice against those who commit real crimes, huh?

His daughter is a tool. The apple don't fall far from the tree.
