Clinton had ORAL SEX with Monica IN OUR WHITEHOUSE. MANY DEMS KNEW ALL ABOUT IT and am certain that HILLARY also knew.

Bubba went to a mike and LIED TO MILLIONS OF THE PEOPLE he represented.

Foley has misbehaved no doubt but as far as we know, this does not go beyond the internet. He has resigned. If charges are filed, so be it.

Foley sent his emails via a certain name. I'm inclined to believe this was a sting.........with very particular timing.

So how exactly did ABC gain access to the IM's? How long has ABC reporter(s) known about these IM's? Sure got to wonder if there are not more 'adults' (use the term lightly) involved in these IMings.

If the family of the boy wants it stopped too and the word "inappropriate" is used, there is no excuse for the approach these idiots took. In the end it's just the same old-same old.

I have read your posts on many of these threads, and your underlining point seems to be "He is a homosexual so he must be wrong". IMO, if this was any other Congressman, in these exact same position, only they were heterosexuals emailing a 16 year old girl asking nothing sexual (birthday wish, picture, how she survived the hurricane) you would not be in such a tizzy. You seem to be hung up on the homosexual content.

It has been pointed out to you, on multiple occasions, that parents of this child were uncomfortable with the messages, but DID NOT want it pursued with the exception of asking Foley to stop contacting their son. The sexually explicit IM's were from 2003 (two years before this incident), and were not known about until Thursday. You still say that "he was gay, so he should have been kicked out". Not all homosexuals are teenage predators, and not all teenage predators are homosexuals. Take the sexuality out of the equation, and step back. If you were in the same situation, last year, as Hastert, and you had no other complaints, either before or after, what more could have been done? As soon as the sexually explicit IM's were discovered, he resigned. They are now investigating. What more do you want.

PLEASE REMEMBER, THESE WERE DIFFERENT INCIDENTS they were not the same child, they were not connected until this past week.

You may know this by now, but these were not the same child. The sexually explicit IM's are from 2003 and unconnected with the parent's that brought the complaint against Foley in 2005.

Not to excuse the act but when and how did the MSM find out about this?

Forget about Clinton and what happened in the 90s. Either the Republican leadership dealt with this issue in a proper manner or they didn't. And Foley is either guilty or he isn't.

Whether or not Clinton is a lying SOB or not isn't the issue.

Someone else mentioned that Foley may have been the victim of a sting operation. Why bring this up? You can't get stung unless you're acting inappropriately.
