Quote of the Day

Tom “The Hammer” DeLay takes the prize, hands down:

But the part of Mr. Kerry's solution to the terror threat that really got Republican eyes rolling was his call for a special session of Congress to consider legislation reorganizing the management of intelligence agencies.

"That's pretty tough talk from a guy who has fewer days at work this year than he has houses," said House Majority Leader Tom DeLay. "He's not been around here during our regular session; what makes anyone think he'll be here for a special session?"

He’s right, you know! This led to the “Weaselly Qualifier of the Day”:

Mr. Kerry later told reporters that he would attend such a session to debate and vote when necessary.

That is: never.

Extra reading: The NY Post and Blogs for Bush have both commented on Kerry’s absence from both the Senate this year and from previous meeting of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
