Hastert asks for investigation by Atty General
Edited on Sun Oct-01-06 05:13 PM by Texas Explorer
Story breaking on CNN:

Dennis Hastert has just made a request that Attorney General Alberto Gonzales take up the investigation.

That's it everyone. We've got this under control. There's nothing to see here. Now please move along.

The REactive Republican party.

5. Well that is a load off my mind


he o.k.ed spying, wiretaps, torture, bush's signing statements,
wrote short summaries of capital cases in TX for bush to look
over before executions that did not cover any mitigating circumstances,
down w/ secret cia prisons, and "helped" in the Florida 2000 recount
so i just know he will make sure to get to the bottom of the Foley
crimes ... :sarcasm:

10. Hell, it wouldn't surprise me in the least if Gonzalez were doing the same
thing as Foley. I think there's a whole NEST of serial child sexual predators inside the upper echelon of the ReNAMBLAcan party.

11. I wonder what kind of boys
Gonzo likes?

He's got the same look and grin that Foley's got.

14. And he apparently approves of sodomizing young Iraqi boys.
Yep, I'm sure he'll be real hard on Foley.

6. Pelosi asked first
But she doesn't count. So since Hastert asked, he's really on top of things. The Dems have to press this and press hard. If any repubs indicate that maybe there shouldn't be an investigation, the Dems have to ask them what are they hiding? There is no doubt that if Foley were a Dem the repubs would be screaming loudly about this perversion. So scream your lungs out elected Dems. You are supposed to be our Reps after all.

7. What a joke. By the time he "looks into it", say 2008, the emails will
somehow disappear. "Foley? Foley, who?"

13. Gonzalez is nothing more then a tool to remove Foley from the spotlight
It's about the election and there's barely 37 days left - tick-tock-tick-tock...
