he is in an appropriate place now and will be judged for the way his life was lived. It is out of our hands. and yes foley is being treated unfairly in this regard. Studds was given a blank check.

Does anyone here think that this was an accident? It's another example of "Arkancide." When Foley's scandal was brought up, republican brought up this loser, who proudly turned his back on the congress as they censured him. And he actually had sex with an underage male page.

Now, if the republicans try to refer to him, there will be a cry of "the mean republicans are out to smear a dead man, who can't defend himself, by trying to link him to that scoundral Foley!"

Anyone have some spare tinfoil?

Exactly what I was thinking. The MSM is so amazing. They will have a public stoning for a GOP rep. who sent dirty messages -- and whitewash a congressman who had sex with a page and a senator (Ted Kennedy) whose actions killed a woman. Talk about selective outrage.

The question is now, does his "husband" get survivor benefits(from his congressional pension), and will this be the new politcal call for the democrat/liberal homosexual lobby.

This is what happens when such rogue courts such as the Massachusetts supreme court makes law up from air.

"The marriage is legal. This is reporting, not advocacy."

True it may be legal in MA, it is still part of homo advocacy.

It doesn't make it OK.

No. If he was the wife, he took it.

"Strange. Head injuries are seldom fatal to liberals."

You must read carefully...notice that it said "head injuries" no mention of "brain injuries." so that fits.

I take it you're kidding. Having sex with a minor is a crime to the best of my knowledge.

This presents a real dilemma for the Dems and the MSM.

They will be torn between the need to make a hero out of this "brave" man and their concern that they will look like hypocrites for damning Foley for similar shenanigans. Funny...

I can't wait to hop over to DU to see them lament his death.

Here's one for you, it shows just how bizzare these idiots are. Studds gets a free pass for buggering pages...

8. I think everyone should take a close look at this man's life. That should shut up anyone who tries to compare him to that serial seducer, Foley.

unbelievable. Here's another:

Cooley Hurd 6. A17-year-old male congressional page who was of the age of legal consent. Funny how the reNAMBLAcans fail to mention that tidbit..

Compared to Foleys 18 year old... Hmmmmm. Funny how moonbats fail to mention that tidbit.

But some on FR are still followed around by the nose by the MSM and will believe the lies they print about conservatives.

Have had a couple of run ins the last day, about the Kuo book and and an immigration thread this morning.

"Gee... Do ya think that the MSM will mention his sodomizing a congressional page because of all their talk about the Foley non story?

Anyone want to give me bets on whether they'll report on it?"

FNC just mentioned his passing and said that he was the 1st openly gay member of Congress, had sex w a male page and was censured by Congress, but kept getting re-elected from Mass. That said, I suspect you are correct - my guess is the NY Slimes, ABCNBCCBSMSNBCCNN, et al probably will not mention it.

After all the cr*pola the Dims having been spewing about Foley - it will be interesting to see who attends his service and how it goes. Think Teddy, sKerrey, Bill and Hill will give Euologies? Tin foil hat time: Maybe the Dimns will say that the 'husband' wants a private family service (wouldn't surprise me if the Dims would try to push him to this so they wouldn't have to attend and they could keep the focus on Foley and off of Studds)

Okay then, what *should* the article have said?
