Foley Coverage at 2pm EST on ABC
Breaking News from ABCNEWS.com:

HOUSE ETHICS COMMITTEE FINDINGS ON EX-REP. MARK FOLEY'S IMPROPER CONTACT WITH PAGES: 'WILLFULLY IGNORANT' BUT NO RULES BROKEN



FOR BRIAN ROSS & THE INVESTIGATIVE TEAM'S FULL COVERAGE OF THE FOLEY SCANDAL, VISIT ABCNEWS.COM:

Just who would have been willfully ignorant? What was the committee Foley was on? The one about protecting children? How many adults are ignorant of the basic rules of how to treat children or underage children with respect and within the legal bounds...I believe it is called decency? Am I missing something?

1. You're missing nothing, Frustratedlady
It's really all about just sweeping this under the carpet so certain feet don't get dirty.

3. TYPO...don't you mean Foley "Cover-UP?"
I'm watching CNN's coverage now. It sounds as if they all just stroked each other, said "Whoops!" but otherwise did nothing. The report acknowledges "willful ignorance." IOW, knowing something bad was going on, but choosing -- CHOOSING -- to look the other way. And the report says it had been going on since 1995.

This is a whitewash if ever there was one. LOTS of asses had to be covered on this one.
