Thanks for the info and your opinion. I am inclined to agree. I don't see much wrong-doing on the part of Republicans here.
Well the 'wrong' is that Republicans got browbeat with the continuous accusation that Republicans are homophobes. Republicans took the liberal ideology that don't ask don't tell applied across the board. They did not ask and Foley did not tell, but somebody knew exactly who and what Foley was and got the documentation to prove it and held back all these 3 plus years to knock him out of office.
There is another thread here that links a hint that the Republican nominee for governor of Florida, Charlie something was roommates with Foley in college. So may well be that Charlie is next on the liberal hit list to knock him out of this political campaign. I will see if I can find it.
