Well, if the threats are conservative threats, conservative Jay will say they’re A-OK, and by the way has Jay told you lately that he’s a conservative?

So the argument from Mary et al is the Republican leadership is so out of touch that they had no idea what Foley was doing but that the Democrats are so in the know that they found out about it but sat on the info?

Yeah that’s a ringing endorsement for why to keep electing the Reps:-)

Face it when your spin is indistinguishable from a Parody the Daily Show ran Monday night you are cooked.

I will say this; Pedophile might be the wrong word, or at least the wrong use of the word. Much like the priests in the church scandal, perhaps the term pederast would be more accurate.
Not better, it’s still a gross miscarriage of power, but more accurate.
My 2¢.

Wait a minute, marty was sending us a coded message! The large Washington Monument on blog active represents a penis! Penis, Washington, help me here guys! He may be in danger from the mighty Clenis’s death squads and needs us to find the code before it self destructs!

Marty, translated:

“Yes, the Republicans have been covering for a creepy old pervert who stalks teenaged boys. It’s the Democrats fault for not stopping us sooner!”

Oh my god I see it clearly now… The Rand Corporation… in conjunction with the saucer people… under the supervision of the reverse vampires… are forcing our parents to go to bed early in a fiendish plot to eliminate the meal of dinner!
We’re through the looking glass, here, people…

Marty, it was the guy on the grassy knoll. Clearly. The trilateral commission and the Bilderbergs had a hand in it too.

Meanwhile, here’s a real cite:

“CNN breaking news: Kirk Fordham, a former aide to ex-Rep. Mark Foley, said he alerted the office of the Republican leader of the House of Representatives two years ago about worrisome conduct by Foley with teenage pages, AP reports.”

Marty’s like that crazy person who comes up to you with a potato chip and claims that it proves the existance of God.

I’ve actually been to that guy’s site before (definitely not one of “your guys” as Marty asserts). His schtick is to out closeted gay Republicans. I didn’t see anything even mentioning that A) the DCCC or DNC or whatever knew about Foley’s page issue for 5 months; or B) that ABC News knew about the explicit emails for 5 months. As I understand it, ABC News found out about the questionable emails last week, and within a day had tracked down the explicit ones. Care to back up your claims, Marty?

Wow, Marty, you’ve convinced me.

“I had the emails before they were on the net. Additionally, I had the additional emails, written by the page to a friend. The story was being written by a number of outlets and I provided additional information to reporters involved in the breaking of this story.”

Dumbass.

Help me here Marty, what am I looking at? What is it supposed to prove?

Here's one site- that will be a good start for you. http://www.blogactive.com/2006/10/good-news-bad-news.html After you read that one- why would the DCCC be sanitizing their comments section of this guy?

Marty must be listening to the 3 time divorced drug addict. He found a way to blame it on Clinton because a Clinton aide had heard that Foley was gay and therefore it’s all Clinton’s fault because he held it for the next election after 1995 which of course is 2006.

Never underestimate the diabolical power of the Clenis.

Got a cite, Marty? A link, maybe?

Gee Marty, maybe you have a point there. In the future when the next con is caught TRYING TO MOLEST YOUNG BOYS maybe the Dems can run right to the press ok?

Then again you’re an idiot.

Marty, why indeed wouldnt they have brought it up a few months ago if they knew? Seems to me the smarter thing to do while bush’s approval was down would be to start this ball rolling so that by the time of the election theres a large scale investigation into how this happened and who was involved in covering it up, putting the safety of republican congressmen over that of minors. But even presuming that were the case (and I’m presuming not) are you trying to suggest that the democrats addressing this issue only after Republicans expose it to ABC somehow exonerates all republicans of wrongdoing in this regard? Or are you just hoping to pass some of the blame on in the hopes of making the party look good during, you know, this whole 51-year-old-having-sex-with-16-year-olds thing?
Incidentally, Ive heard you mention this DCCC thing twice now but I havent heard of it elsewhere, could you lint to something so I know youre not completely full of your own crap?

Gosh Marty, I believe the news will be that Hastert did take action. He had a meeting with Karl Rove, Condi Rice, Donald Rumsfeld, and (the big one) George W Bush. I believe they expressed concerns that letting this come to light would damage the war effort. I think the Bush money quote was: “I’ll kidnap a thousand children before I let this company die and I’ll silence anyone who gets in my way!”

Oh wait, that must be fantasy pretty much like your DCCC babble.
