Put on your tin foil sneakers, cos we're steppin' out
Mark Foley.

Does something seem not quite right about this? Too pat? Too quickly and cleanly executed?

Was he (or about to become one) a liability to Republicans? Something smells about those 'chat logs'.

Thoughts anyone?

1. The House leaders just issued a joint statement
apparently Foley had more then one page.

2. to clarify why I posted in this forum
Over in GD there are howling mobs, baying from the rooftops for the blood of anyone who suggests that it may be wise to moderate the glee and gloating.

Most here are pretty open to tossing around ideas.

4. I suggest we step back & hope that Dr. Debug weighs in on this one. The

good Dr. can probably provide further enlightenment on the long history of high-ranking GOP politicians and their (non-academic) interest in pedophilia.

5. I very much hope he does, however
This seems like too quick and accurate an execution, even for the Republicans.

7. It's a pretty long list, and fairly well known.
They generally protect them, but they let him get caught with his pants down. They have further use for him, apparently. I hope Dr. Debug jumps in on this, also.

6. I think it's odd that the House leadership knew of Foley's emails for
months, but have chosen this time to let it go public.
