ABC announced earlier this week that The "Hammer" himself - Tom DeLay - will appear on the next Dancing with the Stars.
Here's what DeLay had to say yesterday on Hardball trying once again undermine the Presidency of Barack Obama
The Democrats "have spent 15 years trying to demonize me and putting me in jail,'' DeLay says of the unending controversy over the Hawaiian-born American citizen-president's birthplace, asking host Matthews:"Will you ask me the president to show me his gift certificate, I mean his - gift certificate - birth certificate.''
I'm all for ABC being able to cast some colorful characters on their show. Most of them are former athletes, bad actors and crappy singers who are well past their 15 minutes. But to insult the American people by putting on Tom DeLay - a late to the party self-admitted Birther - is just too much. However, as pointed out by the comments - he will embarrass himself - and allow us to poke fun at him.
Here are some more of DeLay's famous quotes
"The EPA, the Gestapo of government, pure and simply has been one of the major clawhooks that the government has maintained on the backs of our constituents."
-- on the Environmental Protection Agency
"To claim that our Founding Fathers were for separation of church and state is either rewriting history or being very ignorant of history. It is simply impossible and it's unwise to try to separate people and their government from religion."
-- on faith-based funding and separation of church and state
"Guns have little or nothing to do with juvenile violence."
-- speaking after the defeat of a gun control bill in the wake of the Columbine High School massacre
This is the former disgraced Majority Leader of which members of his own party indicated they would return contributions from. He's an Abramoff guy. He's been indicted although still not yet prosecuted.
DeLay should be in Jail - not Dancing on the Stars -
