Bizarroworld Dispatch: DeLay to file ethics charges
What a week DeLay is having in Bizarroworld. His best pal and several of his top staffers are convicted felons (each one having confessed), his wife is implicated in a slush-fund scheme, and he's been forced to resign pending his own trial for felony offenses. You know what that means-- he's the victim here!
Now DeLay is responsibly using his final days on Capitol Hill to establish himself as a paragon of ethical behavior.... in Bizarroworld.
“If nobody in this House files an ethics charge, I am,” DeLay said in response to a question about McKinney. “Her behavior is outrageous. And it’s not the only time.”
DeLay was asked if he supported the Capitol Police’s actions following the incident with McKinney, which took place last week when she bypassed a metal detector and a police officer stopped her.
“You bet,” he said.
“It’s outrageous behavior,” he said about McKinney. “Had it been Tom DeLay, the Ethics Committee would have met the next day.”
Funny, this doesn't strike me so much as 'DeLay the fighter for justice' as 'DeLay the strutting demagogue.'
UPDATE: DeLay has apparently reiterated his position on Fox News, where he actually went so far as to accuse Rep. McKinney of being a racist.
