Delay and Order

In what may be the second near-wittiest Title of an AntiCentenarian heading, of gentle Giants of Intellect and Friendly Readers, Tom Delay has chastised the television series "Law & Order" for invoking his name. The line:

"Maybe we should put out an APB for somebody in a Tom DeLay T-shirt," the fictional police officer said.

Delay's response:

DeLay, in a letter to NBC Universal Television chief Jeff Zucker, called that reference a "slur."

"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," he said.

Delay's previous comments that simply reek with the goodwill of rational thought and sensitivity which seeks to engage the public in meaningful discourse concerning those judges:

"We will look at an arrogant, out of control, unaccountable judiciary that thumbed their nose at the Congress and president when given jurisdiction to hear this case anew and look at all the facts ... The time will come for the men responsible for this to answer for their behavior, but not today."

Delay, The Hammer, the schoolyard bully beating the milk money from your pockets and lecturing you as your nose bleeds across the pavement on the cultural significance of the image of milk: sensitive, pure, ideal, and nourishing.
