Tom Delay --Dancing with the Stars...WHAT?


I was watching the news this morning and I was halfway paying attention to the "filler" stories when one of the news anchors released information on Tom Delay possibly going on the popular TV show Dancing with the Stars.

This topic interested me for several reasons one being that he graduated from my high school and the other being that he was involved in a huge scandal in 2006 involving the Jack Abramoff case. It was reported that Abramoff gave free trips, money, and other goods to Delay when he was in office. After the rumors started the Justice Department began to investigate Delay and soon after Delay resigned from being Majority Leader in the House of Representatives.

Going back to the subject of dancing with the stars. My reaction to this rather odd news is, more than anything, laughter! Although this would make for some good entertainment, I feel that there are better people for this very entertaining show.

When my brother told me this news, I thought for sure he was joking.
