Sickening and — more of a crime considering the venue — not very funny.</p> The Daily Show Tuesday night used Cynthia McKinney as an equivalent of DeLay for the first ten minutes of the show.

TOM DELAY may be leaving Congress under fire, but the controversial politician isn’t without employment options: CLEAR CHANNEL/HOUSTON Regional VP of Programming KEN CHARLES tells ALL ACCESS that he’s offering DELAY a hosting gig at Talk KPRC-A/HOUSTON.

“While I don’t have a specific shift,” CHARLES says, “I will find one if he accepts. I am unable to discuss specifics of salary but with endorsements he’ll make six figures easily. On a station with RUSH (LIMBAUGH), (SEAN) HANNITY and (MICHAEL) SAVAGE, ‘THE HAMMER’ would fit perfectly.

“Innocent, guilty, I don’t judge and I know it will all work out but I think he has all the tools to be a good local host,” CHARLES says of the embattled former House Majority Leader.”
