[liberal N proud]

2. Foley - the sacrificial lamb?

[Kierkegaard]

3. It would explain why this was glossed over for ten months, only

to be uncovered a few weeks before elections. I just don't see that it is much better news for the Pukes...

[BurgherHoldtheLies]

4. Ya, cuz them there sex scandals don't influence voters

Gotta be Rove's genius distraction. :rofl:

[Roland99]

5. Right when Baghdad goes under total lock-down for the weekend.

[Patsy Stone]

6. The reverse October Surprise!

Surprise! Surprise! Surprise!

[Disturbed]

The RWing Corp Media will be told to scrub it.

17. House Speaker Complicit in Foley Teen Sex Scandal Coverup?

Rep. Mark Foley (R-FL) Resigns over sexually explicit Email's and IM's to 16 year old boy...

Here is one of the sexually explicit instant messages to a 16 year old boy (Foley's screenname is Maf54):

The Republican House leadership are monsters. They knew and let him remain in the GOP leadership for a year. They let him remain the Chairman of the child sex offender caucus. Jesus H. Christ.


GOP = Gathering Of Pedophiles

Foley was Chairman of the House Caucus on Missing and Exploited Children

The Republican House leadership has known about (and covered up) Foley for a year
Quote:
The page worked for Rep. Rodney Alexander, R-La., who said Friday that when he learned of the e-mail exchanges 10 to 11 months ago, he called the teen's parents. Alexander told the Ruston Daily Leader, "We also notified the House leadership that there might be a potential problem," a reference to the House's Republican leaders.

[madmusic]

19. And they let him write NATIONAL sex offender laws?

He has POWER because he can write and vote on laws, but few seem to care.

If he were a prosecutor or judge, possibly all their past cases would be rightfully thrown out.

[populistdriven]

30. excellent point... the Democrats should insist on a full review of all

laws Foley worked on involving sex crimes before they adjourn!

[madmusic]

36. ho-ho-ho, too late.

[ShortnFiery]

7. Rove is a two bit thug - It's the lapdog media that kills us.

Stop saying Rove's a genius because he is not. He's a mean spirited sociopathic street fighter. He will go down - we MUST come at them with all we've got and not blow up this a**hole to something he's not. :grr:

[Matariki]

8. I don't believe this helps them one bit

and i'd caution against attributing *everything* that happens to their machinations.

[gulfcoastliberal]

9. When has Iraq been on the front pages? Seems to me the media ignores it?

I've not noticed any kind of in depth coverageof Iraqnam - besides, what dcan they report? The flavor of ice cream in the green zone?

[LeftCoast]

10. This is satire, yes?

[zonkers]

21. Yes it is, lefty.

[LeftCoast]

24. Thanks. I thought it was, but then people started to argue the point

:)

[zonkers]

31. Language is a funny thing. Just can't assume. And then it gets to the

point where I'm not sure if the people arguing are either more sarcastic than I am or maybe they are onto something that wasn't on my radar. Then, I take a break and get a mini frozen heathbar.

[Greeby]

11. That presumes the American media would ever put Iraq on the front page

THey'd find every excuse not to cover it, regardless of this Foley business

[GCP]

12. Don't worry

He'll be taking a long deserved rest after wearing all those masks and shooting up three schools in week, and marrying Anna Nicole Smith. :eyes:

[americanstranger]

13. You think they'd throw a seat in the House to divert from Iraq?

Some genius.

That was a safe R seat, now it's up for grabs. If that's a sign of Rove's 'genius,' then he's as big a fucking idiot as his boss.

- as

[ShortnFiery]

15. Nope, this Sex Scandal can RUIN the Republican Leadership who

helped to cover this up for close to 11 months.

Stop this B.S. fatalism! It's wasted energy and reverse spin. :(

This is valid news and it can trash the reputation of many so called "values oriented" Republican Leaders within The House.

Yes, this is valid. We could still be hearing about the civil war in Iraq if it were not for the Whorish M$M who takes orders directly from Uncle KKKarl and Pentagon PsyOps.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

16. Karl Rove is smarter than all of the people in the world put together.

I just read somewhere that he sat down and planned out all events
from 1990 to 2020 day by day and that all your base are belong to him.
The harder you try to outsmart him, the smarter he gets, even while
he's sleeping.

[Bucky]

18. My car door has a ding in it. Fuckin' Karl Rove planned it.

Obviously a plot to, little by little, step by step, dismantle my entire car by election day w/out me noticing. Grrr...

[madmusic]

20. And look at the sex offender laws the Grope wants.

Wag the dog.

[LostInAnomie]

22. You're right! This perv was their October surprise!

God Damn that evil genius!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[LSK]

23. and costs the GOP a seat

Not Roves doing. He would have done this a lot earlier so the GOP would have had time to get another candidate. Now its too late.

[TayTay]

25. That Rove, what a diabolical genius

Engineering a sex scandal that puts the GOP point guy for protecting children from internet predators in the spotlight for being an internet child predator. Wow! My goodness, Machiavelli must be rolling over in his grave saying, why didn't I write about this for The Prince.

It gets better. Rove now knows that the GOP House leadership can be held accountable for helping Foley stay in contact with kids he could prey on. Wow! I bet Rove was saying to himself, wait until the Family Values crowd gets ahold of this. Our turnout numbers in Nov are sure to, ahm, swell.

Ah, sorry, but this is a massive, massive scandal. It is very bad news for the GOP and yet another rock in the avalanche that is falling on them for this Nov. Rove can't stop this, he is incompetent like the rest of them and his ability to run dirty elections was based on pinning scandals like this on the other guys. What goes around comes around and Rove is 'getting' his on this.

[madmusic]

38. Karl even introduced him to the kid.

That's how smart he is.

[MarkTwain]

26. Bull.

There is no way that Karl is sleeping well tonight over this:

1. He just lost a seat in the House. And at this point, every seat is precious to retain their majority and prevent the investigative and legal jihad that will face them come the Wednesday morning after election day..

2. This is going national in a much bigger way over the next week. There is now definite evidence that the entire House leadership was complicit in covering up Foley's stalking for the last eleven months. This is going to be yet another reminder to the voting public that this Congress is full of liars, thieves, cheats, and hypocrites. Not a good thing less than two months out.

3. The primary element of this matter is that a GOP congressman is yet another closeted gay hypocrite. Gay does NOT play well with their base, the christo-fascist wingnuts whom they need now more than ever - especially a gay man that was protected by the GOP leadership for many years. This will be yet another reason for their base to stay home in November.

.... Karl Rover had nothing to do with this.

[brettdale]

27. agree 100%

Talk should be about the torture bill, wire tapping or Iraq.

But it seems the media is more interested in a politican who told a 16 year old that he is horny.

[Justice Is Comin]

28. Me thinks Roveanna has got a little 'splainin to do hiz self

over these coffee clutches with Abramhoff.

Yay, though I walk through the valley of death.....

[Blue_In_AK]

29. No, it doesn't.

[NOLADEM]

32. PUH-LEEZE...Take off the tinfoil, get a drink, meet a girl, see the sun

You really think Rove is gonna sink a solid republican district candidate, entering his SEVENTH term and the associated seniority, and someone they no doubt have tons of dirt on with which to exert influence?

All the while the rest of his party is worried about losing control of that house?

This is a HUGE opportunity for Dems to play a little dirty, call this guy out at every rally, call the Repubes the party of chickenhawk warmongers, torturers and child molesters, and win back our Congress.

These pigs buried Clinton over a consensual blowjob involving two adults. This pig misused his federal elected office in part to seduce a minor who was an employee.

And now it turns out several Repubes KNEW that this was possibly going on and covered for him.

This is no Rovian operation. This is red meat.

[Superman Returns]

33. yeesh

Rove is not an omnipotent god. Great strategist? Yes.

[zonkers]

34. I was joking. Thought my laughing smilee indicated that. Look what I've

done. Aint I a stinker?

[sproutster]

35. I thought it roverian -- BUT SERIOUSLY

They are security and "our children"

Well they covered up a predetor and gave him access to "our children"

THIS WILL F'ING BURY THEM!!
