Sorry, I thought it was very clear from the first article. I was surprised that you couldn't see the link. You thought it wasn't so clear so I followed up with another article to support the claim. My bad. I really wonder what the hell people want in these discussions?

As for the second part, I said it has been suggested. Of course it was suggested by the GOP leadership. That doesn't make it true or false, it will all come out in the investigation. Do you honestly believe your beloved Pelosites are incapable of that kind of immoral behavior?

My beloved Pelosites? Wow, are you barking up the wrong tree. I hold both parties in contempt, than you very much. What I take most offense to is the fact that the Republicans are doing their best to spin this and hang it on the Democrats as it being their fault. They should NOT be circling the wagons and trying to deflect the criticsm onto the Democrats, they should be circling Foley and ripping him to pieces. This is another fine example of the corruption of American politics IMO. They (both parties) encourage this behavior by not crucifying this guy the way he should be. This isn't a matter of the President getting head in the Oval Office (a long standing tradition), this is about pedophilia.

You shouldn't be because this isn't the first time a Congressman has had inappropriate contact with house pages. In fact, the prior time it was a democrat, he had sex with the page and was barely slapped on the wrist.

Who was that, because I'm pretty certain there have been a lot more incidents involving the Republicans lately. That is really here nor there. I have no problem with a guy ****ing a page and people looking the other way, as long as it is legal and concentual. Where I have a problem is wherea guy is PEDOPHILE and people look the other way. This is a felony crime Dis. How can anyone justify this?

Uh huh, because pages and congressmen never talk.
Foley is screwed and the criminal investigation is going to bring down a few more high ranking congressmen, possibly on both sides of the aisle. Any Republican with skeletons in their closet would be best served with taking a very long vacation. Sex crimes investigators are the best and most tenatious that law enforcement has to offer. There's going to be some crawling around orifices with flashlights for quite a few of these guys. Mind you, some of these scumbags might just like that!
