Tom DeLay: Fancy Footwork Leads to Dancing with the Stars

delay.thumbnail.jpgFormer House Majority Leader Tom DeLay–the first congressional leader to be ever be indicted, in this case for criminal charges that he had conspired to violate campaign finance laws–will be using his slick side-stepping on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars.

The scandal-ridden Republican and hard core Christian fundamentalist who will be part of the show’s ninth season once said:

John McCain has done more to hurt the Republican party than any other elected official I know of.

His own appearance on DWTS could cause Tom to revise that statement. DeLay doesn’t stand a chance against the likes of Donnie Osmond, Debi Mazar, Kelly Osbourne, Aaron Carter or Kathy Ireland. Heck, Shannen Doherty’s ex-husband Ashley Hamilton has way smoother moves. Expect an epic fail.

Hard to imagine how he can be light on his feet when he is so full of it. Looking forward to seeing him fall flat on his face.

How will he gerrymander the judges panel?


dakine01 | Monday August 17, 2009 10:42 am 3

I’m wondering how they can find a professional dancer that will make Delay NOT look like he has a stick up his butt


Teddy Partridge | Monday August 17, 2009 11:01 am 4

I would love to see him led off the Dance floor in leg irons.


Teddy Partridge | Monday August 17, 2009 11:01 am 5

Will his DWTS nickname be “BugMan”?


puravida | Monday August 17, 2009 12:09 pm 6

I’ll watch if they make him wear a tutu.

When he is the first voted off, he vows to sing, “Bang, bang, Tom Delay’s silver hammer came down on judges heads! Bang, bang, Tom Delay’s silver hammer made sure they were dead!”

How is this self-righteous boob that claims to be a Christian Fundamentalist gonna cope with his dance partner wearing the skimpy costumes notable on this show!

Would you rather he wore the skimpy costumes?

Just more proof there is nothing a GOP can do in America to get shunned by society. Corporate interests will always provide an outlet, whether GE (Bugman’s on Chris Matthews’ Hardball all the time) or Disney (DWTS).

DWTS should start pairing their E-List celebs with pros AND cons. For example, Tom DeLay and Jack Abramoff would make a good team.


SoFlaJet | Monday August 17, 2009 02:00 pm 14

My first response to this is; THANK YOU GOD!!!! Twinkle Toes Tommy D…I can’t frickin’ WAIT to mock this.


maximus7 | Monday August 17, 2009 02:04 pm 15

Oh Ghod, DWTS appears a travesty. I don’t watch it. I watch baseball the National pastime.

Go Yankees.

Oh, I’d tune in to watch him kicked off on the first show.

This is a good sign. If he weren’t at rock-bottom in political influence, he wouldn’t be trying such a desperate gambit. Heh.

The hot air helps.

Rats. The day is flying by and I gots stuff to do. I leave for Maryland and radio computer silence for 4 days.

Considered taking the laptop, but it’s such a pain at the airport security, and there’s no wi-fi at my mom’s community; I’d have to go out to look for it, and that gets her upset. So, I’ll see you all Sunday, I guess.
Keep everybody’s feet to the fire while I’m gone!

ABC loves them some hypocritical repug politicians…

They do, they do.


hychka | Monday August 17, 2009 02:21 pm 21

What’s the status of his legal troubles?

Did they just waltz away?

oldtree | Monday August 17, 2009 02:54 pm 28

bet’s he falls down, can’t get up, and is drunk. In order of likelihood.


emerson | Monday August 17, 2009 03:03 pm 29

I’ll dance at his wake.

RevBev | Monday August 17, 2009 03:48 pm 31

Well, another reason to ignore/boycott the program.

Ya didn’t have to make me physically ill with your visual description, spacefish!

He’ll strap on twin .44 magnums and an M-16 as a way to intimidate his way to (in)fame(y), just like he did in the GOP. Feeling like voting against me, punks? Do you? Go ahead, make my day!


layla | Monday August 17, 2009 07:45 pm 35

We can only hope for a toupee malfunction.
