"Lord only knows what will be coming out now.
"
Very true. There are other sexual scandals in DC involving congresscritters and pages and interns. I have no doubt about this. They're all kept quiet by everyone, because such information damages everyone.
That may well be about to change. Parents of pages and interns are going to be discussing this with their offspring, and more stories are going to come out. Some will be true, and some false, but they will come out.
I've always said that if you took the entire Congress, held it upside down and shook it, pages and interns would come falling out of pockets like rain.
It's a dirty little secret, and secrets want to be kept. Those who have been covering up stuff are going to be really scared right now, and may well stop covering up in the face of this.
The potential is there for major upheaval, and I don't just mean on the right side of the aisle.
One of the network shows, maybe Dateline or 20/20 did an expose years ago about some of the every day corruption in congress.
Members (of both parties) are continually driving home drunk as a skunk, getting pulled over, and getting escorted home with a smile. Congress controls DC's purse strings. If you arrest too many critters for DWI, they might cut the money, and there goes the police budget. So they skate on drunk driving. There were hundreds of incidents with nobody ever charged. I am betting hookers, wife beating and the like is all part of the mix as well.

Every time one of these sickening story comes out, it seems to include parents/family adults whom I just do not for the life of me understand. Lewinsky's father almost *proud* that his young daughter is servicing a much-older man, simply because he is the president. Chandra Levy's aunt who was simply delighted her niece was in love, having an affair with a married man, was going to go to all manner of lengths to assist, because the man involved was an MOC. Now the parents of this kid, the news story says MOC from LA didn't push because the parents were "comfortable" with the situation.
I don't get it -- we see stories DAILY on the news of kids being kidnapped, raped, the little boy in Arkansas who was tortured before being murdered, and yet Foley, who demonstrates all the tell-tale signs of pedophile, those emails are not sexually explicit, no, but they are so obvious as to intent. We hear about these outrages time and time again ... how can anyone say he is "comfortable" with the situation?? Again, I just don't get it.
