His lawyers hoped to get charges
Which are still in place dismissed
By venturing out on a limb
And then attempting to insist
That alleged “money-laundering”
Should be tossed off all the decks
Because they didn’t use money
But instead were deploying checks
Yes, that’s really Delay’s defense
And I have to say that his is
As dumb as Clinton’s trying toRedefine what the word “is” is.
