House Majority Leader Tom DeLay is angry at NBC for airing a recent episode of “Law & Order: Criminal Intent”, that made a reference to his name.

DeLay’s name surfaced on Wednesday night on the show’s season finale, which centered on the fictional slayings of two judges by suspected right-wing extremists.

In the episode, police are frustrated by a lack of clues, leading one officer to quip, “Maybe we should put out an APB (all-points-bulletin) for somebody in a Tom DeLay T-shirt.”

DeLay sent a letter to NBC President accusing the network of manipulating his name and trivializing the issues of judicial security.

It’s ironic that the whole reason NBC used the reference to DeLay was because of DeLay’s inflammatory statement during the Terri Schiavo case. DeLay said, “The time will come for the men responsible for this to answer for their behavior.”

The Producer and creator of “Law & Order”, Dick Wolf, responded to DeLay’s accusations by saying, “I … congratulate Congressman DeLay for switching the spotlight from his own problems to an episode of a TV show.”

Honestly, how can DeLay get angry at this? NBC was just following his lead. If it weren’t for his violent rhetoric and outspoken position on rouge judges, then NBC would never have had anything to talk about in the first place.

You reap what you sew.
