Tom Delay, now threatening anyone within hearing distance with hell and eternal damnation (if you know, you believe in that) or tax audits until the year 3012:
Mrs. Schiavo’s death is a moral poverty and a legal tragedy. This loss happened because our legal system did not protect the people who need protection most, and that will change. The time will come for the men responsible for this to answer for their behavior, but not today. Today we grieve, we pray, and we hope to God this fate never befalls another. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Schindlers and with Terri Schiavo’s friends in this time of deep sorrow.
On the other hand, he pulled the plug on his daddy, Charley, which did not delay his demise...
Man-on-Dog Santorum champions caps on liability reforms, because, well, he's gotten his back in 1999:
A Virginia jury last night awarded the wife of Sen. Rick Santorum $350,000 in damages after she charged in a lawsuit that a Virginia chiropracter's negligence caused her permanent back pain.
Deliberating more then six hours after a four-day trial in which Santorum, R-Pa., testified, the Fairfax County Circuit Court jury unanimously ruled for Karen Santorum. She had sought $500,000 against Dr. David Dolberg of Virginia, because of pain from his 1996 treatment of her.
"Mrs. Santorum has been vindicated," said her Pittsburgh attorney Heather Heidelbaugh. "She was injured permanently through the actions of a chiropractor who acted negligently.
Nothing like backing into a good deal, is there Woofly? Millionaire pig Santorum gets his...everyone else can just suck it up. What will we tell the fetuses?
April 27, 2001: Jenna Bush arrested for possession of alcohol as a minor.
May 31, 2001: Jenna and Barbara Bush arrested trying to purchase alcohol as minors. This is Jenna's 3rd arrest, but she avoids the three-strikes law her father signed 4 years earlier.
I wonder how many other three-strikes offenders got such a convenient bye from punisment?
And it goes on. But remember, they're pure as the driven snow...somewhere...

And sometimes, when you're a dictator like W, you just see to it that laws are selectively enforced, interpreted to suit your needs, etc.
