I Must See This

Filed in National by on August 17, 2009

Today’s news of the surreal:

Former Republican Majority Leader Tom DeLay will join 15 celebrities from the worlds of entertainment and sports in kicking up their heels on the new season of “Dancing With the Stars.

Other hopefuls include entertainer Donny Osmond; singers Mya, Macy Gray and Aaron Carter; actors Melissa Joan Hart, Debi Mazar and Ashley Hamilton (son of George); models Joanna Krupa and Kathy Ireland; reality stars Kelly Osbourne and Mark Dacascos (“the Chairman” on Food Network’s “Iron Chef America”); mixed martial artist Chuck Liddell; professional snowboarder Louie Vito; Olympic swimmer Natalie Coughlin; former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Irvin and the 62-year-old former congressman from Texas.

Really, there is nothing I can add to this. I can’t wait to see the costumes they put him in. Please, people, don’t vote him off first!

    Break a leg, Tom!

  2. I’m hoping they’ll put him in hammer pants and make him dance to “Can’t Touch This.”

    Dancing leads to lust and uncontrollable passion. It is the tool of the devil.

    I’m hoping Tom draws Donny Osmond as his dancing partner.

  5. It will be nice to see Tom on television, now that my former Congressman has left the area. And before you ask, he can dance — he and his lovely wife could certainly “cut a rug” with the best of them at GOP functions where there was dancing.
