Clinton took payola designed as campaign contributions from same above in exchange for signing executive waivers which moved top secret dual use and satellite technologies to the Commerce Department where they could be sold to China. All against the advice of the Pentagon, and that has put China light years ahead of where it was and it's still accelerating in technology thanks to that TREASONOUS debacle called an administration. Monica was a smoke screen used to get Clinton in... [ More ]

In no way do I defend Foley, but take serious issue with a corrupt party playing gotcha because they're losing ground due to non-performance and no platform other than raising taxes, cut and run on terrorism.

the door should swing both ways - bad behavior is bad no matter what party.

The door does not swing both ways when it comes to Democratic conduct versus Republican conduct. ""In 1983, Democratic congressman Gerry Studds was found to have sexually propositioned House pages and actually buggered a 17-year-old male page whom he took on a trip to Portugal. The 46-year-old Studds indignantly attacked those who criticized him for what he called a â€œmutually voluntary, private relationship between adults.â€" http://www.anncoulter.com/cgi-local/wel...

Foley unlike Clinton was found out and was out within days. He's gone, over and UNDER INVESTIGATION which is fact finding under applicable law statutes to see if a crime was committed. When that is ascertained he will or will not be charged. However am betting on some civil suits for the next few years regardless. Not defending his behavior but a timeline seems to point toward his correspondences when the page was 19 ....... not 16 as repor... [ More ]

You seem to be blaming the Democratic party for the timing of the release of this information. Exactly WHEN was the Republican leadership going to release information of this illegal behavior after knowing about it for three years? After the election when it suited THEIR political purposes? That somehow makes them nobler? The matter is the crime that was committed and proof thereof. The secondary issue is who knew of the crime and did not report it. That establishes accompl... [ More ]

My post was directed at a hit job held off for political gain nothing else. If a crime were being committed Democratic operatives should have come forward and brought it to the attention of someone in authority and documented just that which would have made far more sense. The FBI, Justice Department and State of Florida law enforcement will get to the bottom of it as to who knew what when. If Democratic operatives knew about it then you can bet the farm that the D...

"Getting to the bottom of the Foley issue which should have been already addressed by anyone in a position to do something about it, there is a very large crumb trail leading back to Democrats who were on the run, scared spitless losing political ground big time." I agree, this problem should have been taken care of years ago by Dennis Hastert and others. As far as I know the minority Democratic leadership was not apprised of this situation. To blame Democrats for Mark Foley's behav... [ More ]
