Foley should be tarred with the same brush that the Democrat*** who did this deserved....but evidently didn't get. We really need to know exactly WHY didn't the other known perverts get ousted from Congress????

*** >>> Studds, a liberal DEMOCRAT who acknowledged having sex with a 17-year-old male page in 1973 and making sexual advances to two others, admitted an error in judgment but did not apologize. The first openly gay member of Congress went on to win re-election until his retirement in the mid-1990s.<<<

The entire GOP is now going to be painted with the same brush.

The really bad situation is really two.
1) The biggest thing is "what about our kids?" How DARE these creepy creeps, in or out of Congress or any part of Government, get away with these things.

and
2) The big hue and cry now is "well, that Foley favored young boys is well known," and "they should have known there MIGHT be something..."

I am really troubled by this. On one hand, we have been teaching how PC we should be....and now, many of those same people who want everyone to be PC, are damming a whole population....

Did anyone have any proof that Foley had actually done something to an underage page? If that person/those people knew something concrete, WHY didn't they go to the police?
