In your post at 165 you said in response to someone else's question: "How come its ok for queer dems? Because Foley's actions were directed at a child. THAT is the difference, and it's a crime. Barney Fwank isn't involved with a child."

His name is BARNEY FRANK, not BARNEY FWANK, but we all know who you're talking about!

It's not ok for either party - if the Republican leadership knew about this and kept it quiet, this is a huge mess. I don't care about the timing or the source. These emails and IMs are true. Foley resigned for a reason, not because he was innocent. If Hastert, Boehner and other Repubs knew about this months ago they have no excuses.

"Barney Fwank isn't involved with a child."

If my memory serves me well, there WERE young pages involved. It was probably 20 years ago.

I stand corrected. It was not a page technically but a male he put on his payroll (at taxpayer expense).
