My prediction: Dems are going to be hoisted on their own petard. I'll bet there are Dems shaking in their boots right now knowing that a full scale investigation will uncover their own skeletons. It's happened every time in the past 5 years that whenever Dems try to blow an issue out of proportion, it ends up blowing up in their faces.

I thot the Dems were the party of free love, boy-man love, no restrictions by age on sex, homosexual marriage. Surely there is a way to turn this back on them.

If the age of consent in Washington is 16, was a crime really committed?

Do 'words' on a computer screen in an instant message have the same weight in law as actual sexual contact?

The GOP deserves it though. Regardless of how much anybody things the GOP leadership knew, it's pretty clear that somebody in the leadership knew Foley was trouble long before now, and they should have had him leave then, when a replacement could have been found. I'll reserve judgement on whether they thought this would blow over, but I'd like to see, in the future, anytime anything vaguely evil-sounding is dealt with then and there, nipped in the bud so to speak.
