I can hardly wait to see what bubbles out of the Clinton WarRoom Cauldron late in the '08 election cycle. ;-)

Why is the FBI can demand to see Congress critter's emails BUT not seek evidence in the William Jefferson's bribery scandal?

"Conservative activist Richard A. Viguerie was among those who called for Hastert to step down. "The fact that they just walked away from this, it sounds like they were trying to protect one of their own members rather than these young boys," Viguerie said on Fox News. "

OK. the Associated(with Terrorist) Press is really scraping the barrel to find "Conservatives" to speak out against Hassert. May I ask, who in the heck is Richard A. Viguerie????????????

"I guess that's a poor choice of words that I made there," he told AP."

If ALL the Republicans would quit talking to the MSM then there would be no "poor choice of words". People have already made up their minds on whom they want to vote for so no matter what it won't make any difference unless they talk their way out of votes. As long as the GOP shuts up they will maintain the majority.

He's been around many years, pre-Reagan, one of the founders and facilitators (fundraising) of the success the conservative movement and Republicans have had since Reagan was elected.

Some will characterize him otherwise but he has done a lot in the past to help fund and get the conservative message out..

She's got several harrassment complaints going. For some reason, men keep staring at her chest.

Republicans have been struggling to put the scandal behind them, but another member of the leadership, Rep Roy Blunt of Missouri, said pointedly during the day he would have handled the entire matter differently than Speaker Dennis Hastert did, had he known about it.

You have to ask yourself what would happen if a Speaker Pelosi found out something like this about a House Democrat.

Pelosi would have gone to the ex pages and blackmailed them into signing affidavits that nothing happened. If the ex pages refused then their pets would start to disappear and they would find themselves out of school, unable to keep a job and maybe a suicide. A typical "Bimbo Eruption" situation.

I agree, Foley who???? This should have been a 6 day headline but now it's going to be a 2 weeker because the GOP is still talking about it and acting on it.

I think it needs to be addressed by people who are credible.

That would not be you, McCain. And btw, where does a senator get off demanding an investigation of the other house. Perhaps the House should start calling for an investigation of McCain and his campaign finance reform which exempts tribes which, big surprise, donate alot to him. Crook, thy name is McCain.

Because the Speaker of the House invited them in to investigate.

All they had to do in the Jefferson case was get approval from the Speaker. Instead they got a judge drunk (or drugged), had him write a phoney warrant, and then they did a blackbag job.

It was an unprecedented attack on the Congress. Ultimately these guys will find their careers in Washington are dead in the water, but I think they should be punished sooner than that.

This is what you get when you bring Mexican Federale standards into the US ~ the first thing that happens is a latin American style coup attempt.

He used to have a first class mind. I watched the interview and it looks like poor Richard is not long for the world of those "running loose".

Right Toby. But it does not help that the Quisling's over at National Review are pounding on it hard also.

I think there will be ramifications for those like Larry Kudlow and Jonah Goldberg for not supporting the GOP after the elections. They need to STFU and write about the real issues that matter.

If the DEMS manage to control the House, Patriotism in this Country will sink to all time low, and John McCain better get out their and support Haesert or his White House ambitions will be finished.

A lot of the Conservative publications will keep this going because they honestly feel the GOP needs to lose to teach them a lesson. Just the fact that it's a gay GOP and the weirdness around it should be quite enough lesson for the GOP to move back to family values and national security issues.

Yes.

Why can't you see that it's so unusual for a federal police officer to raid a Congressman's office on Capitol Hill that it had NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE?

This was a coup attempt.

It must be punished and Hastert had best get on with it. He's being distracted by homosexual tiffs and cruising when he should be about the people's business.
