This is the nail in the coffin for the donks capturing the house or the senate. A few days from now, everyone will know the truth and start looking at the donks and ABC. Once sitting elected donks are tied to knowing about these IMS when repubs did not, the dam will overflow.
>>>ABC should get the same contempt poured all over them as CBS and Rather.<<<
Amen to that. And Jordan should rethink his desire to mingle in politics. He is currently working on the Istook campaign. At least until tomorrow morning.
I am not fat.
I am becoming "festively plump".
Relax - I was replying to bnelson44. No need to attack me!?
Ethics panel faces major decisions in Foley investigation
WASHINGTON (AP) — The House ethics committee can conduct an in-house investigation of former Representative Mark Foley's salacious messages to teenagers or hire an outside counsel. Either way, it's likely that Speaker Dennis Hastert and other top Republicans will have to explain why they failed to thoroughly investigate relationships the former Florida congressman had with male pages.
The evenly divided ethics committee scheduled its first meeting for tomorrow. They'll have to decide how to investigate a potential Republican cover-up that could cost Hastert his job and help decide control of the House.
This is not the first time the ethics committee has investigated a speaker. Outside counsels were hired in the probes of former Democratic Speaker Jim Wright and ex-Republican Speaker Newt Gingrich. Also, an outside counsel conducted a broad sex and drugs investigation in the early 1980s that ended with the censure of two House members for consensual relationships with House pages.

Don't keep being the tease. What did Ann say?
The scoop is dead meat. I really wish that blogger who "broke" this had used more caution. The real scoop is that the page was under 18 for part of the IM exchanges.
I have sent your post to the proper authorities
Never mind...
His first name is the same as the last name of a VERY famous basketball player who played for the Chicago Bulls, and his last name is Edmund.
A gay dude and a she-male?
John Boener (sp?) wa on the radio just yesterday all but conceding this seat.
2/3rds of the votes in that district went to Foley, the Republican during the last election there.
As long as the voters are made aware that a) Foley is no longer running and b) Negron is, I don't see why Negron would lose.
I understand that there may be some evangelicals who might not vote (as retarded as that is!) but it shouldn't make that much of a difference.
Foley can make his return to politics as a Democrat, for all I care. He'd be more welcome in the party of McGreevey, Frank, and Studds.
Jordan Edmund.
There--I saved you from reading 550 other posts.
I would think that Foley's hands are tied and he's not parsing the IM's yet. Maybe they are just perked up....there is proof of tampering with the emails.....why not the IM's???
I love that! Good job!
good point.
Because due to your strange agenda, you wouldn't be able to figure it out no matter how simply it is presented.
We can't stop pulling this forum over to the side of the road, always waiting for you to "catch up".
