Ok, here are my quick thoughts on the whole Mark Foley scandal:

1. The timing stinks to high Heaven.
2. The Dems are complaining that the information was withheld from the public for months. How do they know? Because they knew about it for months!
3. Turns out the page the im's were sent to was 18, not considered a minor. Plus, he was pranking the Congressman, provoking the responses for the benefit of the handful of friends who were watching the responses with him.
4. Dennis Hastert should not resign. He didn't do anything wrong. Plus, if he did resign, this garbage would go on for at least another month (well after the elections) because the entire House would have to vote on another Speaker, giving the opposing party plenty of time in front of a mike to keep this controversy out front, drowning out the good news in the economy, the war, etc.

Of course, Foley resigned. What options did he have? He's guilty of being a creepy sleaze and doesn't deserve to be a Congresscritter. Too bad the other sleazy creeps on the Hill don't follow his example.

I could go on, but what for? The people who support the Republican party won't dispute this, and the people who support the Dem's won't do anything else but dispute it. Well, here's your chance. Sound off in the comments. Just keep it civil. Kids might be reading this.
