Shorter TX appeals court: “Haha, just kidding: we don’t *actually* have any campaign finance laws to break in Texas!”
Think he’s back to killing cockroaches?
Speaking of old whores, here’s a Pro Tip for you crazy kids out there:
Never cross-examine a defense “expert” witness with hearing problems via Skype. Yours truly spent an hour and a half screaming at some old angry idiot today. I’m exhausted.
@TJ/ Jamie Sommers /TJ: I’m trying really hard not to compare that to troubleshooting Mom’s computer over the phone.
@TJ/ Jamie Sommers /TJ and nojo: LOLOLOLOLO
And working in a cube calling a deaf vet. “I NEED TO VERIFY YOUR IDENTITY, SIR. WHAT YEAR WERE YOU BORN? YEAR. YOU. OH, YOUR FIRSTBORN. GLAD SHE’S DOING WELL.”
@TJ/ Jamie Sommers /TJ: Yeah, you can’t shove his worthless expert report down his lying throat via telephony.
@JNOV: “What is your date of birth, sir? Next Wednesday? Mazel Tov!”
Rule of call center: The thicker the accent, the worse the call quality.
I know it is less satisfying and it’s Tejas, but bug boy is no longer in Congress and his influence has been taken away. I’ll bet that bug boy got off being the alpha asshole and the fact he no longer has that power will probably bug the fuck out of him like a junkie whose drug supply got yanked away. Money and freedom are cold comfort to a guy like DeLay.
I wanted a perp walk. I wanted him miserable. He shit all over this country.
@blogenfreude:
I think he is miserable, but a perp walk would have been nice. He’s probably no different than any former diva/actor/actress/fame whore turned trivia question. “I’m ready for my close up Mr DeMille.”
