Foleygate

Talking Points Memo continues to cover everything on Foleygate. As is always the case, it's the cover-up that's the problem. Apparently hints to Foley's behavior go back 5 years and the pages knew to avoid him. But the Republican leadership seems to have not bothered investigating. Sure they can say they only heard about the email not the IMs but that's the point of an investigation. ABC managed to find out about the IMs after 1 day of investigation, amazing what those things can uncover (where are you Patrick Fitzgerald?). Foley had $2.7 million in an election war chest and Republicans are hoping that's spread around, but it's up to Foley. Hassert is just trying to keep up with the accusations and claims ignorance on everything. It's nice to know they are distracted from the elections.
