The fingerprinting of Tom Delay
Cauterization is the burning of the body [politic] to remove or close a part of it. It is sometimes done for medical reasons, as to treat some kind of wound in an area, for instance, or sometimes performed as a recreational body modification.
Tom DeLay is being cauterized from The Body Politic in much the same way that Ken [de]Lay was cauterized from The Body Business. Getting Layed ain't what it used to be. And today we read that the former exterminator has been served his papers, and will be mugshat and fingerprinted...with Bible black ink, not the fashionable red or purple.
