Are you in the syndicate?

Delay is drowning in a sea of scandal, and he's lashing out.

"'One thing that God has brought to us is Terri Schiavo, to help elevate the visibility of what is going on in America,' Mr. DeLay told a conference organized by the Family Research Council, a conservative Christian group. A recording of the event was provided by the advocacy organization Americans United for Separation of Church and State. 'This is exactly the issue that is going on in America, of attacks against the conservative movement, against me and against many others,' Mr. DeLay said. Mr. DeLay complained that 'the other side' had figured out how 'to defeat the conservative movement,' by waging personal attacks, linking with liberal organizations and persuading the national news media to report the story. He charged that 'the whole syndicate' was 'a huge nationwide concerted effort to destroy everything we believe in.' "

That's right, Tom. By protecting the rights of people to choose to die with dignity, we are "destroying everything [you] believe in." Seeing as how Delay believes in large handouts, kickbacks, and payoffs, maybe he's got a point.
