I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

Tom DeLay on Fox News Sunday

Representative Tom DeLay was on Fox News'Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace this morning.

You can find the transcript here.

Here is a portion:

WALLACE: There's a lot of talk this week from Republicans and from the media that the DeLay era, as they call it, is over, that you will never again be, perhaps, the most powerful man on Capitol Hill.

Are you done as a major force in Congress?

DELAY: Oh, I don't think so.

This is a frivolous indictment. I am indicted just for the reason to make me step aside as majority leader. This is politics at its sleaziest, and people will recognize that and see it for what it is.

And we're just -- go through it. I think it will be over and be over very, very soon. And I think I will go back to be majority leader.

And at the same time, I'm still a member of Congress. I'm going to be working on the agenda and doing everything I can to make good things happen.
From reading it, I would say it's a pretty good interview (I haven't seen it).
