It is NOT central to Foley(he is obviously guilty of this and more).
BUT...it is central to deconstructing the dem spin that the GOP leadership was complicit. Notice that starting the day it came out, that the dems went straight to implicating Hastert et al in some 'covering up'!
They have said nary a word about Foley's despicable behavoir and now the media is dutifully carrying the DNC template on this scandal to ruin the GOP and call for congressional hearings into blahblahblah...
We all know how they operate and I just don't think we should let them get away with it.
Agreed.
