What makes the Foley scandal so potentially disastrous for Congress's reputation is that if Speaker Hastert wasn't informed of the Foley emails, then he wasn't even given the courtesy of a hand gesture warning him of the potential disaster they represented. "As the speaker I take responsibility for everything in this building. The buck stops here," he told reporters last week.

Mark screwed up. That could be the end of the story if our other representatives conduct themselves with some dignity. However, if they continue to make it a political volley ball, we all go down. So far, we see major shock waves in the political parties and some are saying negative consequences in the stock market. Americans are so'oooo sick of this crap.
