Here is the link to Mr. Rodgers bragging that he had the email before the story broke! Someone linked it in another thread.

http://www.haloscan.com/comments/blogactive/115975284374768134/#207771

Here is what he says:

"As people know, it's not always possible for me to disclose my role in some of the activities.

I can say this. I had the emails before they were on the net. Additionally, I had the additional emails, written by the page to a friend. The story was being written by a number of outlets and I provided additional information to reporters involved in the breaking of this story.

Was the central figure in reporting on Foley's latest scandal? Never said I was. Was my work on the case important to helping make sure it came out before the election? Yes.

Did I have any idea that the GOP leadership was engaged in a cover-up? Nope. Do I love the fact that they are trying to spin this as 'naughty emails?' Yup. because it shows how out of tought they are about queer closet cases."

Wait a doggone minute here! What happened to the Congressional immunity that was so important when William Jefferson, Democrat Louisiana, had his office violated? We went through days of examination of the effort to get info from the office of William Jefferson, Democrat Louisiana, and not a bit of discussion about what the evidence revealed. Even though he was taped taking money, the feds were at fault somehow.

So, doesn't Foley get the same right to stay in office? What? He's a Republican? Never mind.

he is not any worse than any man who goes after a 'teen' girl

Foley was going after boys. Since he's obviously a homo, I'm surprised that the dhimmicrats are critical. I thought homos were one of their favorite constituencies.

You don't suppose that it's just another example of dhimmicrat hypocrisy?

But that requires you to intercede.

True, however it is still considered an IM that was saved.

I also still have ims (not word docs) on an old computer that I have not used for some time. I do not recall doing anything to save them or delete them, but they are there.

It's a given that the Dems always talk out of both sides of their bodies....no need to ask that question.

The boy is 22 now, was 19 then, and wasn't even a page at the time.

Those facts are being ignored by the media for the sake of the storyline.

Okay, I sifted thru some of this maze of material and so far it is only SPECULATED That Jason Leopold is involved in this. Thus far no solid proof.

Huh? I don't understand the question.

What was ignored?

Who's the favored messenger?

"Foley was going after boys. Since he's obviously a homo, I'm surprised that the dhimmicrats are critical. I thought homos were one of their favorite constituencies. You don't suppose that it's just another example of dhimmicrat hypocrisy?"



And this is exactly why some of the Dems are attacking Republicans like Hastert over what they knew, rather than attacking Foley, personally. The Dems are in a difficult position, trying not to alienate their Gay constituents by looking like homophobes, while still attacking Republicans for not protecting "the children."

Republicans need to point this hypocrisy out, noting that many Dems aren't upset at what Foley did, but rather what some Republicans may have not done. This is why it is just as important for Republicans to find out what Democrat operatives knew about these emails and IMs and did nothing but use them as political fodder...rather than protecting the children.

Wow! That last post was rather educational proving how a democRATs mind works. I was waiting for the smoke to come out the back of my monitor.
