Quote of the Day

Think Progress brings us former exterminator and House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, who tells the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are "getting very, very close to treason" with their opposition to the war in Iraq.

"For the majority leader of the United States Senate, in the time of war, with soldiers dying on the ground, announcing that we have lost the war, is very close to treasonous," DeLay said. "I looked it up while we were driving over here, what the definition of 'treason' is."
