"Several members of the Republican leadership have now admitted to knowing for nearly a year that Rep. Foley engaged in email exchanges with a sixteen-year-old former House page. These members, including Majority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) and Reps. Rodney Alexander (R-LA), John Shimkus (R-IL) and Tom Reynolds (R-NY) have all claimed that they failed to take action because the boy’s parents did not want to pursue the matter. The decision not to investigate further left other House pages unprotected and vulnerable to a potential sexual predator." www.citizensforethics.orgMr. Foley was the chairman and one of the House members credited with writing the sexual-predator provisions of the "Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006". How ironic is that? John Walsh is probably throwing up on the set of American Most Wanted right now! and how about of those clown house members trying to protect this asshole just because the family didn't want to pursue the matter? What a joke! It's hypocrisy at it's best and Washington is full of it.
And here is another jack ass, William "Mr Moral & Value" Bennett and what he wrote after George Bush won the second term, preaching about the importance of value while he was pissing away $1Million of his family's money in Las Vegas. By the way years ago I drove this fat boy to his home in Chevy Chase, that's one big dude who loves his pasta and after I dropped him off I think I drove straight to the MIDAS shop to get my rear shocks checked."In the end, it is not really debatable what happened in this election. Values mattered. And as President Clinton realized long ago, when it comes to national elections, values very well may matter most. He may not have governed by the values we agree on, but he understood how to run a campaign and, at least, speak to values (even if he could not live by them). President Bush knew how to do both, John Kerry did not even know how to speak to them." By: William J. Bennett Wednesday, Jan 05, 2005
Please don't be surprised and disappointed about the hypocrisy in Washington, I know I am not because it's nothing new and it's all over the country. Just to give you an example, When I drive my cab at night I pick a lot of men who are in town for business from their hotels and some want to go to those gay clubs and bath houses right behind the Capitol building in south east . They enter those clubs hiding behind a cover of a strange town discreetly at night and with their heads down because most of these macho men are married with a shinny ring and usually in to gay bashing during the day. POOR WIVES!!!
Don't forget the homeless.
Mad Cabbie.

I read somewhere that the Senate is full of cheaters and gamblers and drinkers and lawbreakers - the statistics I saw were alarming (although I don't know how true they were). I can't help but be alarmed by it all, but I'm not sure what's to be done - except try to get more women in there to give those scumbags the old "evil eye" every once in a while.
You go, Mad Cabbie!!! Who is voting for these idiots, anyway?
The ones that knew about it and let it go for months are equally as bad as the one that did it - and to think they are running on moral issues. Disgusting.
Don't forget the King of hypocrits Rush "Pill Popping" Limbo!

J-Funk, I don't want to mention any names but a couple of years ago I had a congressman whose credit card transaction was rejected after I dropped him off at the airport! He kept on yelling at me that there was something wrong with my machine and when I screamed at him to pay me cash, he calmed down and paid me quietly after he learned that he couldn't intimedate me. He was a Democrat from New Orleans!
