‘I have to go now.’
Tom DeLay had his concealed handgun license suspended on January 26, 2006 , after Texas’ Fort Bend County Justice of the peace, Judge Jim Richard, granted Texas Department of Public Safety’s petition.1 He later dismissed DeLay’s appeal in July 2006.
The man once gruff and ready GOP Majority Leader known as The Hammer missed his gun. It’s likely that he will soon have his pistol back neatly tucked against wherever he chooses. In any event, it surprised me to hear that Texas, fer gosh darn sake, suspended his license at all,.
In related news, Pete Olson, the congressman who now represents the district that DeLay owned for 10 terms, remains in hiding since the announcement that “The Hammer” plans to re-acquire his concealed carry license. Efforts to reach Mr. Olson’s staff, friends, or loved ones were unsuccessful, since apparently they too are in absentia.
- His driver’s license was suspended on that date as well, “for tracking purposes.” ↩
