Reply #25: So A Democrat Learns Of A Repugnican Predator...Then What?

[KharmaTrain]

Let's test this stupid talking point and what would have happened.

Let's say Emanuel did have these emails...protocol would have been for him to take this matter to the head of the Page board and his superior...in this caes it wouldn't just be Pelosi, but to Hastert's office. The buck stops there. Now knowing these goons like we do, what action would Hastert have taken? Gone to the ethics committee that he, personally, defanged? Have his buddy Reynolds give Foley one of those "cool it will ya" and then take the $100G check and wish his re-election campaign well. Where would Emmanuel go then?

Personally, I hope a Democrat learned of these emails and may be helped to blow the whistle. The bottom line is there's oe less predator in the House of Representatives today than there was two weeks ago...and if it had been it had been left to McHenry or Putnman or any of these young fascists, Foley's predatory antics would still be tolerated.

Maybe these screws can tap dance around a double-negative, but Democrats are being smart by not doing anything more than rubbing the highlights of this scandal right back into their faces.

The game here for Putnam and McHenry is like the mafia neophyte who has to kill someone to prove their value, this is somehow earning their wings in wingnutland.
