Thanks SuziQ. You post #118 is right on.
Yes, it's the D's fault, not Foley's.
It's unbelievable how many on FR are defending this guy.
Wise up Sparky. Show me ONE post that I've made regarding Foley in which I have defended him.
NObody is defending Foley because what he did WAS disgusting, however what the 'Rats appear to have done is damn near EQUALLY disgusting because they chose to sit on that information about Foley until it was the most advantageous time to blow the whistle.
"leaving minors at risk"
Yes, I have been especially disgusted with this aspect. Whoever knew about any of this garbage from Foley .. thought it was more important to save the stuff to hit the repubs with during an election time than it was to make sure the young pages were safe.
I find this as much or more reprehensible than what Foley did.
However, my local talk radio guy, Roger Hedgecock, interviewed one of the parents of a current page, and he was very confident in what the repubs did and how they handled the issue .. and he considered the pages safe.
Also .. what's not being said is that the contacts with one Page happened AFTER HE LEFT THE PAGE PROGRAM.
I am sure there are some Democrats who think it's rather funny that a Republican is resigning under circumstances for which they practice on a daily basis. These are sick demented people with no morals whatsoever.
I agree. The double standard is very evident.
MSM is more than willing to spread the lies, - they even volunteered to make up new ones.

Damn near equally disgusting?
You RNC hacks are sick.
You don't get it do you "Penner"?
If someone knows of the behavior of somebody like Foley, and sits on the information, and indeed USES that information for their own partisan purposes, that makes them every bit as offensive as Foley.
And once again, nobody is defending Foley, and you failed to cite any post of mine in which I did anything close to it. Like most sleeper-trolls, you make accusations (i.e., that I'm "defending" Foley) and when you're called on to back them up, you can't do it.
I'm surprised you've survived this long without hearing the sound of the Viking Kitties approaching.
(sniff, is that Ozone in the air?)
Surely possible. Also, Hasterts Ch of Staff Palmer is listed as 55 y/o, "single", no children. He may well be in the faggot side of this, and have been the "senior staff" to whom Fordham "reported" to re: Foley. If Palmer "happens to be gay", he might well have minimized/diverted whatever he learned from Fordham and other sources, hoping it would just blow over.
Perhaps the FBI will pry the mask off.
