Tom DeLay starts a blog, but he can't handle the comments

Believe it or not, disgraced Republican power magnate Tom DeLay has decided to become, of all things, a blogger. Apparently the Republican Noise Machine hasn't been doing a good enough job for him...wonder why.

Ironically, DeLay, who is the ultimate establishment figure, tried to position himself as a grassroots conservative hero. But he quickly began learning that the blogosphere is a different world than the U.S. House. Here is a sampling of the feedback left for him before the non-fawning comments were deleted:

High [sic] Tom I was just wondering what you thought of certain a Congressman who tried to get a bill passed claiming the war is "unnecessarily and unconstitutionally begun by the President of the United States"

[...]

Such unmitigated gall.

Your 3 First Principles "Order, Justice, and Freedom" obviously don't include Honesty, Integrity, or Ethics. I particularly like the way the House Ethics Committee chairman, Joel Hefley, was removed after rebuking you 3 times. Yes, he was replaced by Delay groupie Doc Hastings, with a couple other groupies connected with your PAC. Sorta make sure no more untoward rebukes occur.

It's good that you're no longer a Representative; the stench of the 109th Congress will take a long time to fix.

[...]

What a magnificently, terrifically boring and irrelevant blog. Honestly, who on earth cares what you have to say?

[...]

To paraphrase you: You WERE the Federal Government...now you're a nothing.

The fact that you are trying to keep your name alive by starting a stupid blog is actually kind of pathetic and sad. Please just go away.

[...]

How pathetic you are, Mr. Delay. You are a criminal, and you should be serving time in jail alomg with your buddies Abramhoff and Cunningham.

The damage you have done to this country is reprehinsible [sic].

Do us all a favor and just disappear, you sorry excuse for a person.

[...]

Tom, you corrupted the conservative cause and brought disgrace to our party. We can never forgive you for that. Please crawl back into your hole.

There are tons more like this, and you can view them all right here. To Tom DeLay and the unfortunate people who have decided to waste their time running his website we will only say: good luck dealing with the irreverent spam that will surely test the very limits of your blogging software...and your patience.
