Tom Delay Hopes That His Future Cellmate Has NEVER Seen This Video

Video - Delay on Dancing with the Stars - 2009

SNL just ran 2 seconds of this on Weekend Update and I found it on youtube.  Call me disconnected from useless pop culture, but until tonight that I had no idea Delay was on that show, or you can be assured that I would have posted this gem some Saturday night long ago.  The dangerous part for Delay's future stay in prison is most evident starting at the 20-second mark and ending at about 32 seconds into the clip.

In case you missed it this week, Delay was sentenced to 3 years in prison after being convicted on money laundering and conspiracy charges.

Several links and more video are inside including this one...

Tom DeLay: "Arrogance is Not a Crime"

During a Saturday interview with Fox News, DeLay said, "I have an ego and I have arrogance that I fight everyday. But arrogance is not a crime that you put somebody in prison for. This is a political trial."

DeLay added that he is a target of "selective prosecution" by former Travis County District Attorney, Ronnie Earle.

Tom DeLay: Liberals Sentenced Me To Jail (VIDEO)

DeLay tells NBC's "Today" show that prosecutors "never proved" their case against him. DeLay is free on bond after being sentenced to three years in prison and 10 years' probation on a conviction of scheming to illegally influence Texas elections.

Tom DeLay: "Arrogance is Not a Crime"

On Monday, former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay was sentenced to three years in prison after being convicted on money laundering and conspiracy charges.

DeLay, who was nicknamed "The Hammer" for his tough legislative tactics, says the ruling has more to do with political backlash than wrongdoing.

During a Saturday interview with Fox News, DeLay said, "I have an ego and I have arrogance that I fight everyday. But arrogance is not a crime that you put somebody in prison for. This is a political trial."

DeLay added that he is a target of "selective prosecution" by former Travis County District Attorney, Ronnie Earle.

Almost 1 in 10 American children are now being diagnosed with ADHD.

The number of cases in children ages 4 to 17 jumped 22 percent from 2003 to 2008.

Nearly 5.5 million children in the United States have now been found to have the disorder; that's an increase of about 1 million in recent years.

It's a non-existent disease...made up by the drug companies...

By Marian Wang, ProPublica

We've reported extensively on the ties between pharmaceutical companies and the physicians they fund to speak, consult and do research. But doctors aren't the only ones taking money from drug companies and they're not the only stakeholders in the field of health whose public disclosures aren't complete.

According to a new study in the American Journal of Public Health, not-for-profit health advocacy groups like the American Diabetes Association and the National Alliance on Mental Illness also get money from drug companies in the form of grants that more often than not aren't disclosed by those groups.

Tom is getting off light, most will proudly remember his beliefs in human trafficking, prostitution, murder, slave labor, forced abortions, bribery, and money laundering, all in the name of a "free market success" and "capitalism in a petri dish" experiment in slave labor with the coveted made in USA label attached in the Northern Mariana Islands.

"America" gets what "America" wants, we are just one campaign contribution away from the next big scandal.

If Tom spends any time in jail, it will most likely be Club FED, and not a honeymoon suite with Bubba.

"Reagan Had Alzheimer's"

I would hope everyone already knew that, it was common knowledge to those paying attention.

"It's a non-existent disease...made up by the drug companies... "

It is a pill pushers dream, if you had any idea how many people get their kids on the meds just to take them themselves or sell the pills, you would be amazed.

The Drug Enforcement Administration has received reports of Ritalin abuse among diverse segments of the population, ranging from health care professionals to street addicts.

Individuals who abuse Ritalin either swallow the tablets or crush them to produce a powder, which is snorted. Some abusers dissolve the tablets in water and then inject the mixture.

Now, that's the way people should be! I think you see more of a person's real self when they express themselves like this. People are so caught up in the world's machinations that they lose themselves and perform on behalf of the system. Its too bad that one cannot be forgiven for their misdeeds (barring those where actual violence or harm was done to another person) by society and its structural bylaws. Life is so rigid and unforgiving, yet life is so short. I had always felt good about T. Delay getting the 3 year sentence but seeing this video helps me realize that there is a good, spiritual and artistic side to most people, including Tom DeLay. I think a lot of folks would do things differently if given the chance, and maybe those folks aren't so bad afterall, and just need a second chance in life.

Life's a bitch. Just when you think it can't get any worse, its does. I'm living proof of that.

Tom Delay is a store bought hack Dogismyth, given a second chance he would go right back to supporting human trafficking, prostitution, murder, slave labor, forced abortions, bribery, and money laundering, all in the name of a "free market success" and "capitalism in a petri dish" experiment in slave labor with the coveted made in USA label attached in the Northern Mariana Islands.

Unless you are into that sort of thing, then Tom may be sainted.

Yeah I know hope is futile Gompers. At least it seems that way. I think people get lost along the way, and do what they must in order to survive within the subdemographics they find themselves competing. Most do it some degree. Its human nature. While you point out valid points on T. DeLay. these acts are perpetrated because there is little to no resistance from others. It is an opportunity explored and demonized at some point. But T. DeLay is just one man. How can one man cause the harm and detriment to society? That's a rhetorical question.

So how much better are the million plus Americans who drive around with a bumper stick on their car that reads, "Support our Troops"? Yeah, there are millions of T. DeLays in one form or another. America is getting exactly what it deserves, and folks like T. DeLay are just serving it up.

You gotta have hope dogismyth, sometimes, every once in a while one person actually does make a difference. Always remember one thing, where ever there are sheep, wolves may come, but every now and then there will be a sheep dog in the way when the wolf tries to strike.

Thanks gompers....but I was referring to your your previous statement with regards to hope. Its not always as it seems. But thanks for the encouragement.

If I knew how to work this thing, I could transfer a series of still shots taken maybe 8 years ago of Tom Delay solemnly crossing the floor of the auditorium of the Senate Office Building, bearing the 'holy sceptor' for the newly Senate Office Building coronated 'Messiah' reverend Sun Yung Moon. This guy just does not know which side of his bread has the butter on it.
Just how far can someone fall?

Howard...there is a great movie on Jack Abramoff out on DVD now that exposes Delay as the hypocrite he is. 'Just Jack' or something like that, starring Kevin Spacey.
