If you really think conservatives/Republicans are responding to this the same way Democrats reacted to the Clinton/Lewinsky episode, just ask yourself if anyone with a (D) after their name would even dream of taking this kind of approach.
Now, how dishonest is this individual? By the way, he is one of those demanding the resignation of Hastert and anyone else who saw those emails.
The hypocrite didn't even care to put those emails into context. The Page was requesting a work recommendation from Foley. When Hastert saw those emails in that context he told Foley not to contact the Page anymore, because it wasn't proper. But according to this conservative he should have asked Foley to resign because it was obvious he was a pedophile.
On the other hand, if what the media has reveled today is a bombshell, meaning that Hastert nor anyone in the GOP knew he was gay, on what basis should Hastert have asked Foley for his resignation after he read the innocuous emails?
Foley's crime is that he is gay, LOL! Well, let's get rid of all the homosexuals in the House and the Senate... hello! Go ahead and get rid of ALL of hem, I wouldn't have to watch the pervert Berny Frank and his ilk anymore. However, Foley hasn't been charged for being gay, as a matter of fact he hasn't been charged of anything yet. He's being investigated.
He resigned last Friday over emails and sexually explicit IM's. Assuming the IM's are his and assuming that even more sexually explicit IM's surface, Foley conducted himself in a despicable manner and he did well to resign, yet, as disgusting the IM's are, in no way, shape, or form mean he molested young Pages.
The bombshell.... the real bombshell here is that he didn't have sex with Pages. He didn't molest them.
So I want those SOB Democrats and all those hypocrites demanding Hastert's resignation to put their money where their mouths are. I'm glad the FBI is investigating Foley just in case any phony witness come up with evidence of homosexual acts.
Go ahead and prove he molested any young Pages, Rats!
