You’ll Never Believe What Caucus Foley Ran…

Foley fallout
From CNN

National Review Online blogger Jim Geraghy

Mark Foley, the GOP rep who resigned over sexually explicit e-mails to a 16-year-old page, was the founder of the Missing and Exploited Children’s Caucus.

Check out this video clip for the irony.

This is such an obvious case of abuse that even conservative National Review Online blogger Jim Geraghy is savaging Foley.

Geraghy on the instant messages Foley sent the page:

“You think: ‘Oh, it can’t be that bad; and then you take a look at it and, ye gods, it is that bad. It’s 10 times worse than I think anyone imagined.’ ”

It’s just another case of the fox guarding the hen house and the exact same reason why the budget surplus we had with Clinton has turned into the largest budget deficit the nation has ever had.  The GOP can not be trusted.

Bush is passing laws this week for immunity from war crimes because he knows he is guilty as sin.
