DeLay: Dem Leadership Practicing ‘Arrogance’ In Writing Health Care Legislation Appearing on State of the Union, former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-TX) accused Democrats of “arrogance” in their management of the health care bill. “I think what they’re doing wrong is because of arrogance,” said DeLay. He elaborated: “They have huge majorities . . . and you would think you could pass anything and pass it quickly with those kinds of majorities. Why is it? Why can’t they? It’s because they’re going back in rooms and then telling the members, take it or leave it. You can’t do that. It’s obvious.”
