Guilty!

The bug man has been brought down.  A Texas jury today found Former House Speaker Tom Delay guilty of one count of money laundering and one count of conspiracy.  He could face 2 to 20 for the conspiracy and 5 to 99 or life for the money laundering. 

The exterminator turned politician first ran for office because he was pissed off at having to abide by EPA regulations in the pest control business.  In the Texas Lege, he was known as Hot Tub Tommy for his partyin' ways with women and booze.  When he decided to seek national office he, naturally, found Jesus and cleaned up his act.  Apparently graft and corruption aren't sins in his church.  

This is a man who apparently believes his own bullshit.  He said that when he posed for his mug shot, he wanted people to see Jesus through his eyes.  When I look at those beady little raisins, Jesus is the last thing I see.       

Widely known as a gigantic, bleeding asshole, Tom Delay is now finding that karma is a bitch.
