Pretty sad after everything that has happened.

He is demonstrating that he is unflappable in that type of situation ( having his mugshot taken):
for this: I don't find the commentary so laudable either.

Its rare to see a face so utterly slappable.

What the !@#$???? It appears he's very proud of himself in this mug shot!

Love, Lust, and Passion is a strong powerful feeling that can alter a persons life, when they can not handle or control their behavior and should get professional help to keep them to function in a
balance and stable order of behavior !

How twisted do you have to be to smile for a mug shot?

Tom Delay appeared downright joyful in his mugshot. I'm thinking it is a character flaw that makes such posing possible.

He knows no shame. Hard to look at the photo of a deceptive, cheat....and on a wife who had limited time on this earth.

He will reap what he's sown.

Jails have mirrors?

Why is he smiling???

Let's see now .... WHAT was the word he used earlier to describe himself ?? Oh yeah, now I remember .... NARCISSISTIC. To borrow from a longtime feature in Esquire, WHY is THIS MAN SMILING ??
