PARDON THE INTERRUPTION

Conservatism isn't about feeling people's pain. It's about causing it

WARSHINGTON, D.C. - It was a really good day today. Why you may ask. Well, was it that the MORONARCHY's arresting, raiding, torturing, shooting, bombing, etc. of Iraqi citizens finally paid off with the news that we got one of the bad guys? Maybe. Was it that the repeal of the estate tax on the heirs of the 0.27 % richest Amerkins failed to pass the Senate? Perhaps. Or could it have been the extraordinary sight of a disgraced Banana Republican majority leader giving his farewell speech to the House of Representatives? Bingo! No finer words have ever been spoken on the "Peoples's Floor" when Tom "The Hammer" DeLay interrupted House business to deliver his final invective "I don't bear any regret at all" and that he was leaving "under the happiest of the available options," or, as they say in Texas, indictment. Although the former Banana Republican House majority leader leaves behind a 21 year legacy of bitter partisanship, money laundering, illegal gerrymandering, and payola to family, it's possible he will be best remembered for his staunch claim of Christian morals as "The Human Rights Champion" of the Marianas. Or better yet, he'll just be forgotten.
