The Republicans are finished. They just handed control over to the RATS, because they failed to act when a crime against a child took place and yet they did nothing. I would bet you any amount of money that next week ads depicting the Republicans and their "culture of corruption" are going to show them allowing a known pedophile to continue in his position.

To make matters worse that man who took DeLay's position first told the Washington Post that he told Hastert about it this past spring, and then called the WP back to say he couldn't remember if he did tell Hastert after all. THAT made it look like he was covering for Hastert, and was soooo obvious he was lying.

The RATS have obviously known about this for a long time too, but chose to bring it out now to throw the election their way, and it's probably going to work. I wouldn't be surprised to see more victims brought forth by the RAT Party whether it's true or not. The public will believe it.

Hastert should have demanded Foley's resignation and turned the matter over to the police. What Foley did is a crime, and he should go to prison. Hastert and the others who knew a crime had taken place but failed to report it are guilty after the fact, and because it was a child, it's just that much worse. How can we support these guys when their morals are as bad, if not worse than the RATS? We do have a party filled with corruption. They are a disgrace! I'm TOTALLY disgusted!!

"....failed to act when a crime against a child took place" is a pretty high hurdle for anyone.

Ordinarily we do not become apprised of "crimes" until they have taken place and we are told about them.

Seems to me that Hastart acted instantly when he was informed of the "crimes", that is, the Instant Messages.
