You're right!!!! Reinstate Foley and give Hastart a bonus for keeping his mouth shut. Then find that little bas boy traitor and send him to Iowa where the corning never stops.
Scroll back.What happens when you find out the Dimm-o-craps have been
sitting on this information for "how ever long" and didn't
give it to the authorities to "protect" the young folk. Huh,
what are you going to say then.not at all. He was forced to.Hassert has ask the FBI that very question: Who knew it and
how long. Strange the Republican ask that, isn't it.Irene Cara?Oh, yeah, Carl Rove gave out the information on Ms. "Fame".
Hastert Denies GOP Leaders Saw E-Mails

LinkHouse Speaker Dennis Hastert said Monday that no Republican leaders saw lurid Internet exchanges from former Rep. Mark Foley to pages and that he would have demanded the Florida Republican's expulsion if he had known about them.
"As a parent and speaker of the House, I am disgusted,"Hastert, R- Ill., told reporters after holding a meeting at the Capitol in the wake of the disclosure of the e-mails in 2003 to a page, which led to Foley's resignation last Friday. The page's home state was not immediately cited.
The speaker did not mention e-mail exchanges between Foley and another page, from Louisiana, in 2005. Other House Republicans said they told Hastert about those exchanges months ago. Hastert has not disputed those accounts.
"Congressman Foley duped a lot of people," Hastert said. "I've know him for all the years he has worked in this House and he deceived me, too."
There currently are 72 House pages, 48 selected by Republicans and 24 by Democrats, according to a recent report by the Congressional Research Service. The Senate breakdown is 30 pages, 18 chosen by Republicans and 12 by Democrats.
Horse Hockey, forced to......like commit political suicide, I
don't think so.
Absolutely. The finger was pointed squarely at him after it was found out he had been given the emails. Which he first denied, then passed the buck to one of his staff and the House Clerk. Have you actually been following this story or did you just wake up?
In the future: Republican pages wanted. No experience nessesary. MUST BE DISCREET.
Well Chump, keep your hopes up. But once again you will
be disappointed, just like Karl is still in WH. And you and
many others on this board have egg all over your face as
you have many times. We shall see, we shall see.
You have your great ones on the dimm side. Too many to
mention right now. But funny no one wants to address those
issues. Isn't it?
Was Hastart involved in those issues too?
^^Nope just most of the leaders of the dimm-o-craptic party. And
you and most of the others on this board who hate Bush.
I'm not disappointed. There's an investigation. It's more than Hastert did in the past. I'm happy he was discovered his spine by covering his ass.Well Chump, keep your hopes up. But once again you will
be disappointedWhich ones are being investigated?You have your great ones on the dimm side. Too many to
mention right now. But funny no one wants to address those
issues. Isn't it?
Well William Jefferson, D-La. He had cool 90 million in his
freezer.
But you missed the whole point to begin with, which is not
surprising. You are all upset about Foley. But look at post
#71 and answer for those folks. Shouldn't you be showing a
little outrage about them?
There are some questions raised in the manner of that investigation but sure, that's a good investigation.Well William Jefferson, D-La. He a cool 90 million in his
freezer.Are they being investigated? Why can't you just say "Let's let this investigation go forth and let it speak for itself."?But you missed the who point to begin with, which is not
surprising. You are all upset about Foley. But look at post
#71 and answer for those folks. Shouldn't you be showing a
little outrag
You guys certainly wasted no time throwing stones from your glass house.
Theres Jefferson, go get him, fine by me.
Go get republicans that let republicans off the hook, too.
Who would have a problem with that?
"no time throwing stones from your glass house."
Ask St Ronnie would say: "There he goes again"
The Repugs take a huge "morals" hit below the waterline, and Yoni reflexively trashes the Dems as being no better.
The Repugs MUST have known the Dems knew,
the Repug MUST have known it was going to break sooner or later,
so the Repugs SHOULD have outed their gay pedophile predator.
Announcing it themselves months ago, LONG before the elections, would have looked like the Repugs were running a tight moral ship, that a gay pedophilie predator had been discovered and the Repug party cleaned itself.
Would given the voters time to forget (they always forget), given the Repugs time to nominate a credible replaceent.
Instead, the Repugs let it break from elsewhere, and then start lying that they knew nothing about it.
The stoopid mother ers.

The GOP knew at least 5 years ago...Pages "warned" in 2001...
Yonivore, do not act like it is so absurd for Dan and SA to find this a big story.
I have seen plenty of Bill Clinton-got-a-blowjob!! circle jerks by some of you guys in the last few years, and ...that happened years before that as well.
That sick Michael Savage said that the only reason the God-fearing conservatives didnt oust Foley was because the "purple-hand" would have their asses. He claimed that if it had been a woman that they would have said something, but they were afraid they would look like gay-bashers if they brought it to public eye.
He then said that we are making too big of a deal about it, the guy is sick, but the media needs to stop making this a headline. Noone remembers Clinton, and Savage seems to forget that he mentions the infamous b.j once per show.
I would like to meet him, just once...
I don't think I want to know what the purple hand is.
Well, the red hand was under Mussolini in Fascist Italy....just subs ute the color purple and what it means in todays society.
If the Dems dont win November, this board is going to light up like NY's Christmas tree. Lots of hopes pinned to ineffectual politicians.
I hope the Dems win for chaos sake, but I sincerely believe, after 2 Presidential elections, that I am a stark minority. That most individuals dont look past a) religion and b) power.
Republicans have a stranglehold on both "images". They may not be either, but they sure have convinced Americans they are. Methinks some of you are going to be crying in your beer mid November. I might just join you.
The Republican will lose one, if not both houses in November; things were beginning to swing for them to hold on (barely), but this revelation, along with Woodward's book, have killed whatever momentum they might have had.
The rash of school shootings will also tend to encourage people to not vote status-quo, IMO.
Plus, there's also Diebold. Remember that when Max Cleland got beat in Georgia he had almost a double-digit poll lead over his Republican contender, but he was also a very vocal critic of the Bush Administration, much like Cynthia McKinney who's loss can be attributed in large part to the wing-nut echo chamber blowing a little spat with a Capital guard completely out of proportion.
The WH wins by keeping a majority in both houses, doesn't matter if they lose House or Senate seats to them as long as they can close party ranks while passing controversial like the new terra and wire-tapping laws.
And good riddance to her, there is nothing wrong with a little house cleaning now and then on our side of the aisle, in fact we should be quick to throw crooks like Jefferson under the bus, nut jobs like McKinney to early retirement, and Faux Democrats like Joe Lieberman from the senate to the Bush Administration where he belongs.
I do worry about Diebold and voter suppression and I may be like Charlie Brown running up to kick that football Lucy is holding but I think the anti-in bent (read anti-Republican) wave is going to be so great, that even dirty tricks won't stop the Dems from winning the House and maybe even the Senate.
I really don't expect Democrats to win the House or Senate not even with this fiasco happening.
And I still like Lieberman. He's his own man and I like that.
Gas is down and heating-oil is expected to be inexpensive this winter, plus, it's not like the Iraq war has grabbed voters by the balls, sure Americans want to win the war and get out, but except for the families that have members fighting in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other far off places, the typical selfish American hasn't really been affected by the war.
When it comes down to it, some overly cautious voters may say, oh sure, I want the crooks out, but just not my crook because he brings home the bacon.
