Bush backs Hastert in Foley fallout (Flashback 2006)
Chicago Tribune ^ | 10/4/2006 | NEWS SERVICES

President Bush said Tuesday he was "dismayed and shocked" at disgraced lawmaker Mark Foley's behavior and supports House Speaker Dennis Hastert's call for a full investigation.

Some, including a Washington newspaper, have called for Hastert (R.-Ill.) to resign, but Bush expressed confidence in the speaker's ability to resolve the matter, calling him a "father, teacher, coach."

"I know Denny Hastert. I meet with him a lot. He is a father, teacher, coach who cares about the children of this country," Bush said.

The Bushies ALWAYS had a “soft” Spot for FAGGOTS(Karl Rove, Mark Melmen et al).

Well, maybe it is a good sign that the only dirt the left can dig up is based on something so old. Then again, maybe he is just being held up as a threat to other politicians, as an example of what could happen to them if they don’t follow orders.

I think Bush and Rove know Hastert and Foley were homos. Roberts, too.

Of course it’s Obama and Lynch and Hillary and Jarrett sending a message to the GOP “leadership”.

Maybe, maybe not. It would be one thing if he knew they were homos, but I don’t believe for a second he would have supported Hastert if he knew he was Sanduskying adolescent boys when he was a teacher/coach. He was a mediocre president that screwed up a bunch of things, but I don’t believe he is a bad guy.

If Hastert was a “Slimeocrat”, you wouldin’t hear a peep. Merely trying to divert attention away from Hitlery

I heard once about rumblings about how HW was running a ‘call boy’ service out of the white house....

He was a CIA spook so who knows if it was business or pleasure...

Re Rove: He’d probably get better press if he were.

The Bushes seem a little naive about people. They love the Clintons, so they really have poor judgement of character and are totally fooled by Bill Clinton.

Hastert also defended William Jefferson, D-La.
