How do you pursue something like this? The parents didn't want the emails to be released. They didn't want an investigation and they said no crime was committed. What could Hastert legally do other than tell Foley to cease all communication?

Well Blunt is a grandstanding whore who wants to be Speaker. The Emails are a completely separate issue from the IMS. The 2003-2005 IMS NO but Brian Ross at ABC, the Page and Foley KNEW exist prior to last week.
It would be really nice if our the RINO Congress clowns would not help the Democrat Noise Machine by repeating distortions and falsehood. Foley's gone. He is under investigation and will be prosecuted. This is utterly meaningless noise being drummed up to take the campaign off the real issues. It is stupid for Conservatives to be helping the Democrats take the focus off the Democrats complete incompetence to hold any political power.
Leave it to the Donner Party "Conservatives" to gleefully rush in to help the Democrat Noise machine.

I just listened to ALexander on State wide radio. He by far is best person explaining this.
However it is clear to me that the people involved with this are not in enough contact with each other. It is crazy. Little tiny innocent factual errors come in that can be made to look as something bad.
You would think with all the Lawyeres we have on Staff up there that someone would put cooridiante this better. However ROdney just said he hasnt talked to the leadership in days. Good grief

This Foley crap is nothing but nonsense and noise. He resigned. He is under investigation. He will be prosecuted. Meanwhile the REAL important stuff is not being talked about so the Junk Media drama queens can hyperventilate about a complete NON issue and divert attention off the Democrats complete lack of anything that even looks like a sane idea of a plan for our future.
You tax bill, the War on Terrorism, the Border, your kids future, NSA bill pending in front of Congress, Judges, Spending, Jobs and the Economy, ALL the real issues that the next Congress will have to deal with will STILL be here and need a resolution a month from now when NO one even remembers Foley's name.

I wish they would all JUST SHUT UP -- and I do mean the Congress critters and the "pundits" who are suppose to be on OUR side.
Most of them don't even have the facts straight and they end up making it worse.

Was that on the Moon Griffon show? Moon's show does have a lot of statewide listeners.
To: nana4bush
He was just on. Actually ruth interviewed him(which is a nice change lol). Great interview.He let out the facts as clearly as anyone has. The problem is his morality and dencency will prob restrain him from getting on National TV to talk about it since his goal is get attention away from this poor kid on a national level.
By the way it as to our prior post, he alluded to the fact that he knows that some of this is Democrat payback for him becoming Republican

Rodney is definitely a good decent guy. I think it is a good thing that he is trying to explain some facts as he knows them to his constituents. People who are not Freepers and listen to main stream news need help in trying to understand what is going on with the Dem agenda. I'm sure Moon has a lot of Dem listeners too.
To: AntiGuv
Senator John Ensign (R-Nev.) was just interviewed on our local radio station (in Reno). He discussed this subject, made some factual errors, and misspoke a couple of times in ways that made him sound bad.
He should have just kept his stupid mouth shut.

On the federal investigation into Foley's communications with teenagers in the congressional page program, acting U.S. Attorney Jeff Taylor for the District of Columbia told Hill officials to "preserve all records" related to the matter, according to a Justice Department official who spoke on condition of anonymity. I heard about this earlier .. this is not an investigation the Democrats really want
Who knows what the FBI will find
