R.I.P. Hammer

Former Majority Leader Tom Delay is not seeking re-election. Shocker! He's staff was eating themselves and going after each other, it was just a matter of time. Power destroys people. It corrupts people and it corrupts the staff. Where is the person on staff who says this is not right? What about the Member?? I used to think that a trip or dinner wouldn't sway people. I still think thats true, but its the abuse of these things that get me mad. I cannot stand staff who believe because they are staff they are entitled. Entitlement killed this country. My kid is enitled to an A. My kid is entitled to play during the game. I dont need an entry level job I'm eneitield to a mid-level job. Wait on my every wh9im Im entitled to it. Fuck your entitlement do your work. If you cant do your work then you shouldn't be here. Where did that riff come from...oh yeah power.

Power is a great drug. It makes you seem like you can do anything. It does alter your perception and people's perception of you. It paints your world purple and you end up fucking believing it. Anyway, Delay got what he deserved. He believed he was all powerful and it blew him up.

I wonder if staff is ever loyal. Do you think staff would go down with the ship? Clinton's friends go down with the ship so I guess Democrats are better friends.

Bye Mister Delay, I am glad that you aren't in power, because you kicked our asses.

He kicked the Dems' ass, but he did it in a very shady way. Should the Dems sell themselves out like this? Sell their soul for power?

Where's Mr. Smith when you need him?

Ultimately, though, I think this should be used against the Republican party. The Dems should distance themselves from being dirty. Or at least portray themselves as being honest. Power is a nice drug.
