Gravatar"Highest level of the House" could mean anyone. If they had said "biggest level," I'd know we were talking about Denny.

GravatarDenny is not very bright, is he?


GravatarNever met the man.

Foley served nearly 12 years in Congress and was regarded as an energetic and capable lawmaker. But he barely registered on the senior GOP leadership's radar screen. "I've never had a conversation with him," said Speaker J. Dennis Hastert. "Other than his vote on a tariff matter at one time or another, I think."


Yo, Denny -- How do you explain this photo then?


GravatarThese guys CANNOT get their stories straight. Pardon the pun.

Foley flew, and Hastert knew. Plain and simple.

Gravataryou know, putting aside the whole conspiracy to commit child molestation, I kind of feel bad for Denny. I am sure being an unknown speaker in the heydey of the Neocons (2002) was a sweet deal.


GravatarHastert isn't gone until his name shows up in a story with a "D" beside it.

GravatarYou know, conservapals, if you had just shut the fuck up from bitching about everybody else's supposed wickedness for the past 2000 years or so, then maybe the rest of us wouldn't be being so hard on you now? Ever consider that for a second or two?

WASHINGTON - A senior congressional aide said Wednesday that he alerted House Speaker Dennis Hastert's office two years ago about worrisome conduct by former Rep. Mark Foley with teenage pages.

The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity. Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.

Gravatarholy shit. Is it possible this story can get bigger than we all had ever hoped? OMG.


GravatarDennis Miller, all around dumbshit, classifies the chimp with Lincoln and Truman. "They only other two times I've heard two guys hated as much as George Bush it was Truman and Lincoln."


Gravatar"the people who wrote the credits

those that sacked the people who wrote the credits have also been sacked...


GravatarSo to recap...
-unprovoked war
-torture made legal
-New Orleans blown off the map with thousands of black residents displaced, never, in all liklihood, to see their hometown again
-pedophilia rampant through the Repulican-controlled congress ('cause you know, just know, that Foley's not the only one)

Sounds like quite a legacy GW has got fer himself. Nice.


GravatarNow - now, you guys slow the hell down.

(1) this has much bigger and harrier legs than should be used up on a quickie Speaker resignation.

(2) each day and night they fuck themselves up more with conspiracy, obstruction, fraud etc. which aways adds needed levels to the entertainment.

So go slower, dammit. Fordham's claim should have come on Friday or Saturday - plus it's about time to hear from investigating agencies and private lawsuits and lawyers.

More cowbell, but sostenuto.

GravatarGeeze, ya think he'll last till Friday?

Though I, for one, have no problem believing that "the highest levels" of House leadership exclude Denny Hastert. I think they set him down in a room with a big box of donuts and some "I Dream of Jeannie" reruns while the decisions are made. Occasionally he sends an aide to look through the internets tubes to get the name of that dark haired girl who played Jeannie's twin sister.

GravatarWith Leslie, Booby catches out the chimp's daddy. Leslie moves to a clip of Larry King asking Bush Sr about reports in Booby's book of his negative opinion of Condeliar. Bushdaddy acts offended and says "I like her." Cut to Leslie and Booby and Booby says: "What the book says is that Rice is a disappointment and isn't up to her job." Booby correctly points out that there's ambiguity in what Bush just said and it's not a denial of the book's report (apparently what Scowcroft reported to him). Bush Sr busted.


GravatarMy gut feeling is "Illinois Fats" is going to stay on as Speaker. What would be gained for him to resign so close to the election? He will tough it out, and assuming there is a Thug majority in the House, he will be out then.

That's why Americans won't allow the democrats to take control next month because the dem's are weak on defense and economy. That's what matters, not some sick pervert in congress.

Why weren't computers secured right away? Because then they can destroy evidence. Why won't that work? Because they aren't smart enough to use an industrical grade computer erasing machine and they forget that the emails that they send are often stored in multiple places.

Their is a reason that Bush isn't allowed to send emails. Their is a REASOn that they classify every single thing they can as a "national Secuirty' or executive privilidge deal. The are too stupid NOT to put stuff in email so they must keep the email away from us.

Can you image Bush's emails on this topic? Cheney's Rove's? On the other hand Cheney and Rove will probably only talk on a scrambled phone to people so their is no official record of their shannagins.

Mark Foley’s predatory behavior, or demand Hastert’s resignation. As a former federal prosecutor, I’ve put sexual predators behind bars. Anyone who is willing to turn the other way while a predator lurks in the halls of Congress is unfit for the title of Congressman. Speaker Hastert must resign, and I urge Congressman Fitzpatrick to join me in calling for his resignation.”

Gravatar "They only other two times I've heard two guys hated as much as George Bush it was Truman and Lincoln."

Dennis Miller: as good an historian as he is a comedian.

On the day JFK died, there was a full-page ad in the newspaper with his full-face and profile "mug shots" and the headline WANTED FOR TREASON. In the South, at least, there was lots of blind furious white-hate hatred for his successor.

Then of course there's the little matter of President Bill "Oswald where are you now your country needs you?" Clinton.

GravatarAnyone who knew of resigned Rep. Mark Foley's improper conduct should resign and face prosecution, a coalition of conservative groups says in a letter released Tuesday.

Paul Weyrich, an author of the letter from the Arlington Group, a coalition of 70 socially conservative organizations, called for House Speaker Dennis Hastert's resignation.

But after speaking with Hastert Wednesday, Weyrich says he changed his mind, and the speaker should not step down. Michele Norris talks with Weyrich, chairman and CEO of the Free Congress Foundation.


Weyrich tells Norris that he received a call from Hastert this morning in which Hastert assured him he is a pure as the driven snow, or something like that. Weyrich now says Hastert should not resign.

However, he did say he thought it was impossible the Repubs would keep the House due to this mess.

Now, Fordham says he has emails and paper trail to back up his version of things.

Buh-bye, Denny!

It's perfectly simple, Tena. Fordham hacked all Foley's...um...electronic stuff, in such a way that it's not detectable, which proves that this was a well-funded, expert plot involving professionals. The e-mails were dated 2003, so that when the Dems sprang this surprise in 2006, they could have plausible deniability (i.e., "Why wouldn't we have done this in 2004?").

"The cancer has been cut out. Bad apples punished."
"Hastert isn't really that important since he is not up for election."
"This will bring back the memories of Clinton scandals."
"Bush isn't involved, nor are any people actively RUNNING for office. Not that big of a deal"

I like this drip...drip...drip characteristic of this scandal. I'm so happy that Haster did not resign last week. Any bets on who will resign on Thursday? Here are my thoughts:

1)Since Foley has been trolling little kids for 5 years, I bet he was successful in seducing at least 1 of them, i.e. he had sex with a minor.

2)The House leaders have known about this for 11 years.

3)There is/was probably alot of sick shit on his computers.

4)Hastert will not be speaker in January (lets hope he hangs around until Nov.)

5)Reynolds will probably not get reelected.

6)The GOP is desperately searching for a pedifile with a D next to his name.

Nothing is there. Just talk and more talk. Additionally, trying to blame the pages or teens for being sexually aware or precocious reveals the baseness of 'the victim made me do it' attitude.

I think I saw in the World Almanac the other day that he won his last pretty handily. Speaking of Randi Rhodes, she sez that, since he represented the district she worked in (diff. than the 1 she lived in), she used to have him on her show down in Florida from time to time -- never agreeing with him, but having him on. (And of course, she said, it was known he was gay, but who cared, and the Dems didn't use it.) But she stopped having him on after a woman friend of hers ran against him years ago, and the friend's name ended up missing from several hundred ballots on election day.
