Why does the house leadership coddle pedophiles?

[Rockstone]

That's all I want to know.

Someone commits a crime and they keep it a secret? Does that make you an accessory to a crime?

Is this country being run by a pedophile ring?

1. The country is being run by people who seem to have no fear of

consequences for their actions. Whether their misdeeds are financial, sexually exploitive, or otherwise.

The players seem to be interchangeable -- convict or oust one, and there's another one to take their place, whether it's Jeff Skilling or Duke Cunningham or Mark Foley.


However, I just saw a nice possible bumper sticker (hey, if we can't have democracy, we can have bumper stickers, eh):

Republican Leaders Didn't Protect Congressional Pages From Mark Foley.

But They Claim They Can Protect the Rest of Us From al Qaida?!?

3. They knew he was a pervert and they were trying to get him

re-elected!!!

2. A crime family

There's a difference. What we have is much worse than a mere pedophile ring.

4. What do so many "family values" -spouting repukes have in common?

Sick secret sexual behavior. I've always thought those people were "protesting too much"!

I love watching the house of cards fall. :popcorn:
