Well, except that the Republicans didn't boot Foley out. He resigned. After he'd been renominated this year. After the Leadership had ample opportunity to say, "You know, this looks bad. We're going to have to have these on-line relationships with underage pages investigated. Maybe you should step down, for your health or something. Then, after the investigation is done, if you're in the clear, there will be a nice job on K street for you. But if it turns out you really were hitting on these pages, God help you, because we'll be through with you for good."

At least, that's what I'd have wanted them to say. They had no qualification to judge if these relationships were okay or not, and, even if the first kid's parents asked to have the matter dropped, there was still a responsibility to be sure nothing else was going on. The House leadership is "in loco parentis" for these kids during their junior year of high school. Someone dropped the ball. This issue is not going to go away.

Hey Big Shot...Who dropped the ball?? All that Hastert knew was that Foley was gay and sent an e-mail asking for a picture and asking how he fared during the hurricane!! OFF WITH HIS HEAD!!! OFF WITH HIS THING!! Is that what YOU would do? You are a Troll or you are a homophobe and you want everyone else to be....which is it?
