In case you haven't been paying attention, here's a few quick reminders:
- Tom DeLay claims to represent so-called "Family Values" in Congress.
- Tom DeLay has been a major force for so-called "Tort Reform" in Congress.
- Tom DeLay has been on the forefront of keeping Terri Schiavo on life support.

- Tom DeLay opted to take his own father off life support after only days of hospitalization.
