Thanks, Carl Hiaasen!

Hiaasen also takes Hastert to task:

Foley has disappeared into Detox Mansion, but no such refuge is available to the Republican House leadership. With each day's tawdry headlines, Speaker Dennis Hastert struggles to appear suitably shocked and disgusted, while clinging to his job like a bear up a tree.

His credibility is zero, his memory worse than Condoleezza Rice's. Kirk Fordham, Foley's ex-chief of staff, says he warned the speaker's office three years ago that Foley was getting too chummy with the pages. Hastert denies it.

In defending himself, the speaker noted that editors at two Florida newspapers -- the St. Petersburg Times and Miami Herald -- knew the content of the 2005 e-mail and decided not to write anything. It wasn't a stellar moment for The Times or this paper, although nailing down the story would have been difficult -- but not impossible -- without the teen's cooperation. Hastert or any of the GOP bigshots who knew of the e-mail were in a better position to investigate; with a single call they could have put the FBI on Foley's computer trail, to find out if there was a pattern to his creepy correspondence.
