No, not to defend Foley, just to show that dems don't really care about what Foley did, they only care about taking advantage of it.
In other words, you think the Democrats are using Rescumlican tactics with great success.
I can see why that would be quite annoying to righties.
You ought to see how upset they get when a democrat raises almost as much campaign money as they do. Fighting on even ground? Why that's damn near communist!

Saying "Sure, maybe Foley did something wrong, maybe he didn't, but the Dems are much worse!" IS defending Foley, no matter how you slice it.

So the democrats are attacking Foley only because they want political advantage, but the republicans are bringing up Stubbs because they are all about protecting the children. Right. People aren't buying it; check out the poll results on the Foley mess.
*sigh*
NO, the Reps are bringing up Studds to show that the Dems only care when it's a REP doing it... and only when they can hold the information for a year and use it 6 weeks before mid-term elections. Way to protect those kids, Dems... you GO!

I don't understand the tactice of holding any information to just prior to elections. Both parties do it, and it's reprehensible, but so what?
All each needs to do is to just sit back and pay attention. There is reprehensible crap going on all the time - so guaranteed there'll be something at election time just in the normal course of events - and of course it can spun partison-wise. It would be better to just expose as they go.....
But then the public will know it's a chronic issue of a majority of politicians, not just occassional wierdo events of a handful. But then we'd figure out we need to clean house on both sides.

Well there you go again, what's with the high expectations? In order for the average citizen to disseminate the......ooooohh...... Wait! I have to run, the morning news is showing a recap of a re-run of Survivor!!
"Tactice"? Tactic of practicing or practicing tactics?

The republicans are bringing up Studds because the latest poll results are terrifying them. They very badly need to cast the democrats in a bad light. You can see this happening on several angles:
-maybe the victims were vicious democratic operatives
-democrats are worse than Foley
-maybe democrats are as guilty as the GOP in the Foley scandal
NEITHER side cares if one of their own does it, as long as it doesn't get out and hurt their chances of re-election.
>and only when they can hold the information for a year . . .
At this point you'd have to prove they held it for 5 years, since Foley's behavior has been known at least that long. And you'd have to then claim that they decided NOT to use it for an incredibly close presidential election, and instead wait for a less-important mid-term election. Occam's Razor applies.
