Fly On

Pennsylvania’s good professional football team just finished a sound drubbing of a high school squad from Wisconsin. Was exciting for the first half. Go Eagles.

‘Resign, Mr. Speaker’

Monday, October 2nd, 2006

Here’s the article, released by the Washington Times after Drudge revealed the story.

Washington Times: “Hastert Must Resign”

Monday, October 2nd, 2006

At least, that’s what The Drudge Report is saying. The Washington Times will call for Speaker Hastert to resign tomorrow, which basically means that this is going to get a lot worse. This is going to cream the GOP when all is said and done, the conventional wisdom was that the Democrats needed something unbelievably unbelievable in order to pull a true ‘94 turnaround off. I believe that has been satisfied.

Moral Equivalency

Monday, October 2nd, 2006

I think more needs to be said about former Congressman and sexual predator Mark Foley. Look for many on the right to traipse out arguments of moral equivalency. Now is not the time to argue about blue dresses or Barney Frank’s lover running a gay prostitution ring out of their home. The only thing close to Foley’s actions is the accused rape of Juanita Broderick by then governor Bill Clinton. A charge President Clinton has yet to answer. But nothing compares to this. You do not excuse one bad behavior with another.

Foley is a sexual predator and should be prosecuted. Also at fault is the House Leadership who knew about Foley’s shenanigans and did nothing but tell him to stop. The GOP leadership is eating good old-fashioned oh s&*t burgers right about now and they deserve it.

I ‘m disgusted.
