Here's the bottom line: The minute Mark Foley started exhibiting objectionable behaviour (as early as 2005) concerning congressional pages, he should have been forced to resign.
Yes, I know the Democrat Party is a seething cesspool of sexual predators, scoundrels and unabashed hypocrites--but that is not the issue. Republican politicos (as well as conservative pundits)--using this argument-- need to give it a rest.
Republicans should be about values, not feckless debates crafted to defend inept leaders. Leaders, by the way--that should have had the chutzpah to issue Foley his walking papers over a year ago.
Perhaps the Washington Times is correct: Resign, Mr. Speaker.
