Oh I know that I'm not "missing" anything; that wasn't my point. I just didn't know that an IM could be saved, is all. There isn't an IM I would EVER want to save. LOL

BOXERS OR BRIEFS?: April 19, 1994. Two years in office, President Clinton submitted to 90 minutes of questions on complex policy issues by 16-to-20-year-olds before a live MTV audience. Everything else was forgotten when 17-year-old Laetitia Thompson of Potomac, Md., asked: "Mr. President, the world's dying to know. Is it boxers or briefs?" "Usually briefs," the president replied, looking slightly non-plussed. Today, most presidential candidates use MTV to reach first-time voters.

The timing of this story smells like an October surprise

Of course it does. Doesn't mean it isn't true.

Is there any way to get a new GOP candidate or start a write in campaign?

That depends on the laws of the state (unless it is a democrat candidate in which case the candidate can be replaced with a new one regardless of what the state law says).

but the released emails were not overtly sexual.

You only saw 3 of them; there were at least five of them.

The emails -- the ones that the GOP leadership was aware of previously -- were not overtly sexual, and the local media in FL didn't consider them newsworthy. It was the IM's that were overtly sexual in nature, and those just came to light recently.

Now foley is saying because a PRIEST molested him he did what he did.

IOW a homosexual molests a child and thus it will cause the child to grow up to be a homosexual.

per following foley's logic.

Fox and Friends, with their new Bimbo, is on the MSM disinformation spin. They even had Robert Novak to spin his usual old man ignorance.

It seems that the only thing left is to count on the Democrats to overplay their hand on this.

This is one time I hope they don't disappoint us.

Damn, I'm good!!! < /tooting my own horn>

Making the silly claim that homosexuals ought to be prohibited from holding public office is the kind of thing that a Dim troll would post.

It's a bizarre parody of conservative beliefs, intended to make us all look like wild-eyed lunatics.

No, thanks. Peddle it elsewhere.

Seems to be a consistent theme with that one.

I suppose you could ask the moderators to ban me,if you really feel that I am being abusive?

Just stating my opinion, that the Republican party should never have embraced the log cabin Republicans.

There's a difference between that statement and your original one.

The distinction is between a sensible, defensible position and wild-eyed lunacy.

You have a right to your opinion. As for me, I have more respect for a gay who supports the second amendment, a fence on the border and kicking some Islamofacist ass than the most heterosexual and ostensibly 'moral' of tax and spend, Quisling gun grabbers.

YMMV, it's a big tent.

My only questions when supporting a candidate is "do you understand that the 2nd amendment is an ABSOLUTE right' and /HOW FAST do you intend to deport illegals'?
