Had Foley been a Democrat, he would have probably stood his ground and screamed, "witch hunt!" at his accusers. The liberals, MSM, and DU crowd would then have rallied around him. True. But why sink to their level? They've more than reaped the whirlwind for their antics. Our party is just too stupid to spend its political capital during eight years of control in the legislative and executive branch.
Closing ranks over an issue like this would shatter the integrity of conservatism.

Closing ranks over an issue like this would shatter the integrity of conservatism. We're not trying to close ranks, we are trying to point out that Hastert (and the FBI and the parents) had nothing to go on in the emails. Now the media is conflating emails and IM's and saying monday morning quarterback Hastert should have known and fired Foley. That is ridiculous.
