In the end it doesn’t appear that Foley broke any laws, I’m not so sure about this guy.
No surprise whatever that this is the media reaction. Makes the thought of the 0bama presidency all the more scary when you realize the “news” media will be his propaganda outlet.
This is more serious than what Foley did and sure sounds extraordinarily unethical, if not illegal. Foley sent texts to young guys. If I am not mistaken he never even touched them. Yet the reaction from the Dems and the media was that this was scandalous and that Hastert and the whole GOP leadership were covering up for some kind of monster molester.
Now you have a much sleazier story here, with funds involved, and a cover up from top House Dems but there are no screaming headlines. No surprise though that Mahoney figured he could get away with this. Most Dems do, and he probably will as well. I’ll bet he wins again.
