It's a war out there!

The Houston Chronicle reports this lovely statement from Congressman Tom DeLay:
"You know, if Houston, Texas, was held to the same standard as Iraq is held to, nobody'd go to Houston, because all this reporting coming out of the local press in Houston is violence, murders, robberies, deaths on the highways," DeLay said.
Well, OK, but I don't remember this, this, or this happening in Houston recently. And I live in the Third Ward.

Maybe Tom's just pissed at the huge billboard downtown calling him out for golfing with fatcats.
I'd like to think that comparing your hometown to Baghdad probably doesn't sit well with old school Houston folks.
