Great, Now DeLay wants to put an end to Satire?
Ok, Tom DeLay is a douche bag, plain and simple. Andrew has posted about some of the issues in his "accountability" post. This guy is mad with power. Its bad enough he wants to curtail Judicial power, but when you mess with satire...that's where I draw the line (oh BTW that was supposed to be satirical)
Recently in an episode of Law and Order a Federal Judge was killed, and a cop says "Lets put out an APB on a guy in a Tom DeLay T-Shirt." Thats FUNNY! Satire I think they call that Mr. DeLay (by the way your name is suspiciously French sounding, is that why you are so snippy...hmmm (sorry Michey you know I love making French jokes)
Anyway, DeLay's response to the show was "This manipulation of my name and trivialization of the sensitive issue of judicial security represents a reckless disregard for the suffering initiated by recent tragedies and a great disservice to public discourse," DeLay wrote in a letter to NBC President Jeff Zucker
Well, seeing as though we just avoided the Nuclear Option I want to know why he was watching TV and took this much time out of his busy day to be a cry baby.
And this is coming from a man who pretty much said that if the Federal Judges are arrogant when they think independantly or go by the black letter law rather than what congress or the president wants. (like in The Shiavo case) Hey Tom, read up on Checks and Balances are.
And if he wants to screw with TV's ability to playfully mock its leaders, and perhaps bring back sedition laws, maybe he should see what happened when Larry Flynt was sued by Falwell.
