Tom DeLay: not exactly the gold standard of integrity

of COURSE delay's going to become a lobbyist... what ELSE does he have the skills for...?

As long as he isn't forced to wear an orange jumpsuit (and possibly even then), those lobbyists [at a recent lobbyists' dinner] said, DeLay could easily become a lobbyist himself and make a lot of money.

That isn't exactly what you'd call the gold standard of integrity.

talent (paying to play) meets motivation ($$$ & power)... it's a slam-dunk...
