QuoteQuoteQuoteQuoteOf course, if the Dem leadership had not held on to the story, but had tried to make political points out of it right away, then they wouldn't be a story of hypocrisy to tell the media.
Coming from a supporter of the party of Karl Rove, that is really funny.
Politicians do what politicians do. Foley did what creeps and pedophiles do.
Wow... sending erotic emails to people above the age of consent is pedophilia, now? What are they calling what Studds did, then?
A couple of months ago you neo-cons were falling all over yourselves trying to get distance from Foley. Now he did nothing wrong? Please explain.
How about if you Dems explain why Studds got a pass?
I love you, Shannon and Jim.

QuoteQuoteNews:
Democrats shopped Foley story to papersSource: Washington Times
"Democratic campaign operatives pushed newspapers to write about then-Rep. Mark Foley's e-mails to teenage pages in the hope that a scandal would emerge before the midterm elections, according to a House ethics report.
"The findings were bolstered when an aide to Rep. Rahm Emanuel, Illinois Democrat, said the congressman also knew about the e-mails, which were dubbed "inappropriate" by the ethics panel. Mr. Emanuel, who was chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee when Mr. Foley's sex scandal broke in late September, had denied knowledge of the Florida Republican's e-mails..."
I can't look it up right now but I believe there was a story that named the REPUBLICAN who originally shopped the story. Regardless of who put it out there, it needed to be put out there and who gives a shit if it hurt the R's in the election. They deserved it for ignoring it in the first place AND they proved a few days ago, when the released the house ethics report that they still don't know a thing about integrity.

Dam, now I get it. If it hurts the R's and helps the D's then to hell with ethics. Very good

Apparently you don't get it. That ethics report (as put out by the committee that was shut down for over a year for doing its job on DeLay) was a fitting and predictable swan song for this lame excuse for a Congress. Why start being accountable now?

Wow, people are really defending Foley now. I guess the election's over . . .

No, since he WAS quite hated, the senate attempted to impeach him with insufficient evidence - which is why the impeachment failed. Had he been a republican, he would have been defended with the same ardor that right-wingers are defending Delay.
>But if you are right I woudl have heard him called Hitler, ignorant,
>stuipid and on and on and on.
I believe you are contradicting yourself! You yourself have called Clinton stupid and ignorant. From a right winger blog:
"Sadly, the comparison between Clinton and Hitler seems to be growing more apt every day."
No one has been hated in recent history by the GOP more than Bill Clinton. Now, if Hilary runs, he may get a run for his money - but until then, no one else comes close.

I don't understand how that is defending Foley. It seems to me to be just pointing out the hypocrisy of the left. Quite different than defending Foley.

Show me where I've EVER said that Foley should have no action taken against him.

And by the way, there was enough evidence to remove Clinton, but the adoring media had enough impact to impress a gutless Senate didn't do it's job

Because we are a bunch of godless sodomites who secretly condone gay child sex.
I thought you knew that?

Clinton's lighting was from the side. If that isn't a dead give away for favoritism then I don't know what is

Besides, you know how some Republicans hate having things brought out into full light

You mean besides the obvious,... that Clinton's pic was done well and Newt's looked like it was taken and cropped by incompetent dolts?

Clinton's pic has good lighting and is well framed.
Newt's pic is horribly over-exposed and his big ole fat hayud barely fits on the page.
both pics are well framed
I'd hardly say having half of clinton's face hidden in shadow to be "well lighted"
Newt actually does have a big ol' fat head - but no devil horns
Newt's is a bit huge and he looks very pink. They both still have a feminine smile.
I bet both, or their staffs, were allowed to review the cover pic on those articles, in return for a bit of interview. Politicians are pretty savvy about PR.....

Nobody said he did nothing wrong. Just that it wasn't pedophilia.
