I completely agree. Career politicians are ripe for the picking.

What we see in Washington today is a far cry from public service.

Foley will be away for at least a month...re-hab rules are strict.

Rehab is a joke.

While we all laugh about this turn of events, it is important to remember that the Democrats are ignoring it all, and proceeding as if nothing new has happened on the campaign trail and in ads and press conferences. They are issuing repeated lies and libels, and are scoring major points against GOP House incumbents. Much of what is being said is actionable in a court of law as provably false. But they will worry about that after they win.

I agree with Professor Turley, the page program should end.

I think I agree with you, but think about the implications of that. The greatest nation in history, governed by creeps so low that we cannot trust our adolescents around them. Mind-boggling. To what depths have we descended?

But Foley is still disgusting.
That's what it comes down to for me. He was the problem, and now he's gone. If anyone else knows it can be proven they knew, they need to step down immediately so we can move on. Otherwise, this will continue until election day as ABC reported 3 more pages came forward today.

Question for anyone: DH heard that a GOP staffer was the one who leaked the IMs or emails. Anyone heard this? Would that be Fordham? All I can find is this search that turns up a bunch of liberal leaning sites. Thanks!

Here is the proper spelling for future reference: Berserkeley.

Everybody knows that's the correct spelling. I don't know what the argument is about.

Are you in OK? Why did Istook hire these two? Have they endangered his election?

I saw phikapmom's posts on this, but I don't have a good sense of just what these two *operatives* have accomplished re: Istook's campaign.

They all seem to be able to Instant Message. The future is paperless baby.

Apparently alot more work would be done without all cute young things distracting them.

"What we see in Washington today is a far cry from public service."

Totally disgusting! I am sick of the whole bunch in DC. They are all, Dims and GOP, sharks and/or carps. They are just not serious people doing the the serious work of the government. Stupid, lurid scandals and finger pointing and muckraking are totally out of order when our country is in need of serious, hardworking people who understand the threats we face now. (However I will still vote GOP in November) What choice do I have?

The page program should definitely end ! Navigating D.C. safely these days is difficult enough for an adult. . .it's absurd to believe that any 16 year old is savvy enough, no matter how cosmopolitan they may THINK they are.

I agree with the FReepers who suggest that Hastert should just end the program for pages at the national level.

They could continue to serve their political internships at the state level. At least, in most instances, the "children" would be closer to home.

BTW, what kind of parent would even consider sending a child off to D.C. ?
