Review of THE BIG BUY: TOM DELAY’S STOLEN CONGRESS

[wyldwolf]

First I would like to clear two things up:

1.) There is a picture on the net where a bewildered baby is looking at Howard Dean like he is a visitor from Pluto. Yes, that child is mine.

2.) A lesser known picture of half a head sniffing the neck of former 2004 Vice Presidential candidate John Edwards belongs to me as well.

So of course, the movie, The Big Buy: Tom DeLay’s Stolen Congress would appeal to my smug, liberal, fill in the blank with whatever political smear word you can come up with, ass. There, got that out of your system? Now are you sitting down?

The film, was written, directed, and produced by Texas filmmakers Mark Birnbaum and Jim Schermbeck and is distributed by Brave New Films.

The opening credits start with a startlingly young Tom DeLay super imposed on the skyscrapers of Houston proclaiming that he was going to get into congress and basically take an enormous amount of power away from the Federal Government. Although I disagree with him, it is exactly what his Republican constituency wanted. DeLay enters his career in congress as a party idealist, or so you would think. While this film could’ve easily become a primer on “Why the Republican Party is in League With the Devil” it actually turns into something unexpected, it becomes a film about what happened to Tom DeLay when he stopped being a Republican...
