Hypocrisy, Thy Name Is DeLay
So this grandstanding Jesus Creeper of a politician is currently making hay by condemning anyone who supports euthanasia. Yet in 1988 DeLay participated in a decision to withhold life support from his brain-damaged father, ensuring his rapid death. His father injured by a runaway tram device, DeLay successfully sued the manufacturers for restitution, then a few years later drafted legislation making it more difficult for people to sue manufacturers of faulty devices. Today DeLay is now ‘an outspoken defender of business against what he calls the crippling effects of “predatory, self-serving litigation”‘. It’s mind boggling to realise that people fall for this sort of duplicituous behaviour.
