October 9, 200620 yr It seems now that at least one page has came forward and said he had sex with Foley. So I guess it's more then some naughty emails now, right Mr. Snow ? Perhaps we should require Foley to list every sexual partner he has ever had so we can determine what job those sexual partners had years before they had their encounter with Foley.

October 10, 200620 yr Author Intentionally lying to the American public, or playing to the ignorance of their base? Fair and balanced ... give or take an outright lie or two. Frances
October 10, 200620 yr Oh my .... Frances PS - this is wickedly funny. Perhaps one of the best I've ever seen on BGP. I only wish that I could take credit for it. But alas it stole that line from the genius that is Steve Czaban.

October 12, 200620 yr Ken Silverstein of Harper's Magazine. Also, claims the story was shopped to a few Florida newspapers. Why Florida? Because that is the home state of Foley.

December 8, 200619 yr WASHINGTON - The House ethics committee reported Friday that Republican lawmakers and aides failed to protect young male pages from former Rep. Mark Foley's improper advances, concluding an investigation into a scandal that convulsed Congress and contributed to the GOP defeat in last month's elections. The panel said it found no evidence that any current lawmakers or aides violated any rules. But it said it discovered a pattern of conduct among many "to remain willfully ignorant of the potential consequences" of Foley's conduct.
December 9, 200619 yr Author WASHINGTON - The House ethics committee reported Friday that Republican lawmakers and aides failed to protect young male pages from former Rep. Mark Foley's improper advances, concluding an investigation into a scandal that convulsed Congress and contributed to the GOP defeat in last month's elections. The panel said it found no evidence that any current lawmakers or aides violated any rules. But it said it discovered a pattern of conduct among many "to remain willfully ignorant of the potential consequences" of Foley's conduct. This is tantamount to criminality, in my opinion. The concept of "plausible deniability" when used by the intelligence community is understandable. When the politicians began to use it to cover their butts, it became a euphemism for committing crimes in the name of "doing the public good". Other than a retention of political power, absolutely nothing good could come of not decrying the actions of Foley, once they were known to a fellow legislator. Frances
