If they take the gloves off, they lose the respect of the Washington Post.

They might be off the A-list cocktail party circuit.

Our pundits might not be invited back to This Week with Clinton's (Steffy) and Moynihan's (Russert) Ex Press Aides.

We are risking a lot by taking the gloves off. For some, it might be too much to bear.

I think the Republicans have a great deal more going on and work to do than having to fight the Pelosi "Foley" War. It's stupid.

Experienced politicians see this "foleygate" for exactly what the Democrats intended -- a diversion. Pure and simple.

And I get amused every time I see another post calling Republicans "chicken" for not kow-towing and playing this stupid game with the Democrats. And especially coming from posters and voices who also say, out of the other sides of their mouths, that America shouldn't involve itself in every war.

WOT, Nkorea, Iran, Russia, Latin America -- but some think the Repubs should be focused on the Dem kiddie game?

True...if we take the gloves off, we risk breaking our nails
