WASHINGTON TIMES ON TUESDAY WILL CALL FOR SPEAKER HASTERT'S RESIGNATION, NEWSROOM SOURCES TELL DRUDGE... DEVELOPING... Editorial titled: 'Resign, Mr. Speaker': 'House Speaker Dennis Hastert must do the only right thing, and resign his speakership at once... Mr. Hastert has forfeited the confidence of the public and his party, and he cannot preside over the necessary coming investigation, an investigation that must examine his own inept performance'... -- Washington Times, October 3, 2006...

Here's the Wilson, Plame, Foley connection mentioned earlier.

See the first 4 articles. CREW sent Foley emails to the FBI in July. CREW also is representing Wilson/Plame against half of the Bush admin.

It was supposedly the "plan" that Richard Clarke and Berger and others..wrote..they called it an "after action report" about how to deal with the terrorists...

It was one of the documents that Sandy Berger stole from the archives during the time of he 9/11 Commission hearings that I guess were "lost" ...

[Paige]

When I read his headlines, I don't see him on our so called side of the fence.

[Neverforget01]

The "plan for the millennium plan" was taken? What is/was that?

Are you daring to allude to terror plots--the most critical issue of our times? You mean it isn't more important to destroy the Republican party because of a deviant? I know Soros is a happy man tonight--He won.

[AmeriBrit]

I'm trying but not having any luck. If you have any spare ones hanging around, please send them our way. Don't know how much more the tree trunks can take from us before they fall over. Nov 7th's still a way off.

[Txsleuth]

I like how they said that Hastert gave "phony answers" on Friday....I didn't know that he had testified to anything.

[Owen]

I'm not quite sure I understand the value of this.

The only worthy conservative focus at this point in time is getting this matter off the TV screen and getting Foley's replacement elected.

With Foley resigned, it is no longer a political issue. Focus on the specifics of the case can take place after election day EVERY BIT AS EFFECTIVELY AS NOW.

So why do it now when there are other matters, like avoiding impeachment hearings 24/7 all next year, pending?

[blondee123]

the kid logs these IMs, holds them for years, his parents likely knew the contents, somehow they get plugged into the DNC and ABC - so Hastert should resign?

I have a feeling this is going to turn out to be like the CBS RATHER to-do! Let the Freepers loose, they'll find the rat!

[Right Wing Assault]

Wow! She looks like Jon Benet Ramsey.

[JCEccles]

I know Soros is a happy man tonight--He won.

Soros, Saddam, bin Laden, Clinton, Sheehan, Moore, Pelosi, Chomsky, Singer, Kennedy (all of them), Kerry, . . . .

[jrooney]

Exactly. Drudge is a platform for news headlines. 90% of them are liberal slanted stories lacking all the facts that slam the republicans, so Drudge is not doing us any favors. He blasts these propaganda stories around the world. Drudge does little follow up of substance anymore.

I'm having a hard time understanding why everyone is giving legitimacy to a bunch of IMs that haven't been verified. If you're going to throw out an allegation like that, I would think you'd have all your proofs in a row and I haven't seen anything to indicate they have verification.

I'm certainly not trying to defend Foley's actions but there is a legal standard to be met before you start throwing people under the bus. Three and four year old unverified IMs doesn't cut it for me.

Hello,

1st) Soros has not won.

2nd) I asked a question of a FReeper, regarding her post about documents stolen by Berger. She kindly answered my question.

Soros is doing handsprings tonight.

[blondee123]

Things I didn't know about some members of Congress; -36 have been accused of spousal abuse. -7 have been arrested for fraud. -19 have been accused of writing bad checks. -117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses. - 3 have done time for assault. - 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit. -14 have been arrested on drug-related charges - 8 have been arrested for shoplifting. - 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits. - 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

Lest we forget, one is a murderer!

[MOgirl]

Hello,

Just because he is happy, does not mean he has won.

Yes, Soros has won, and it was brilliant, find a deviant Repub, and nail him and force the MSM to paint the entire party as deviants before election day.

I for one, will be working even harder at my local campaign office this weekend.

And hoping for a ruthless SOB Republican to run in 08, BECAUSE PAYBACKS WILL BE A BITCH.

LOL, let's roll!

[Neverforget01]

Soros, Saddam, bin Laden, Clinton, Sheehan, Moore, Pelosi, Chomsky, Singer, Kennedy (all of them), Kerry, .

The Fitzmas they didn't get with the Plamegate

[blondee123]

I will be voting Libertarian

It's a gesture and no more, since there is no chance in hell a libertarian will win. You will throw away your vote, let the dems win & we'll have total amnesty for the illegals & tax increases to support these illegals!

"Yet when the media reports the findings by ABC they never mention the IMs letting the public believe that the GOP was aware as far back as 2005."

Sorry, I am not being very clear. My assumption is that if they had given the earliest e-mails to a law enforcement unit dealing with internet predators they would have nailed it for what it was right at the beginning. I don't think anyone is at fault other than Foley. I think it is going to get a lot more messy as more information is revealed. By this time next week we will be looking at behaviors and stories that will be a lot more upsetting.
