[Vision2020] Blaming Democrats For Foley Cover Up?

[Ted Moffett]

All:

I posted some of this content earlier... Here is a shorter version:

The evidence is rather convincing the Foley cover up of his sexual advances
to pages goes back to at least 2003, and this evidence comes from within the
Republican party.

 Consider that these events might have been a bombshell for the Democrats to
lob at Republicans during the 2004 Bush v. Kerry election.  And many are
claiming Democrats knew about this and kept silent?  Democrats may be fools,
but really...

Kirk Fordham, Foley's former Chief of Staff, tried to moderate Foley's
behavior regarding sexual approaches to minor pages as early as 2003,
according to his public statements, and when this failed, he approached
Scott Palmer, Hasterts Chief of Staff, to intervene.  Fordham has already
been interviewed by the FBI, and is going to testify.

Though Fordham is under attack, with some questioning the authenticity of
his story, or trying to blame him for blocking the release of the
information about Foley's misconduct, others are coming forward to verify
his claims.  Fordham would have to be some sort of "double agent" working
for the Democratic party, to explain his conduct as connected to Democratic
propaganda to damage the Republicans before the 2006 mid-terms, as some
claim.

Quote below from this news story:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10/06/AR2006100601888.html

The staff member's account buttresses the position of Foley's onetime chief
of staff, Kirk Fordham, who said earlier this week that he had appealed to
Palmer in 2003 or earlier to intervene, after Fordham's own efforts to stop
Foley's behavior had failed. Fordham said Foley and Palmer, one of the most
powerful figures in the House of Representatives, met within days to discuss
the allegations.

And consider this report further bolstering Fordham's claims, and actions by
high ranking Republicans to investigate claims of Foley being drunk,
intercepted by capitol police trying to enter the page dorm:

WASHINGTON - A senior congressional aide resigned Wednesday and said he told
House Speaker Dennis Hastert's office about former Rep. Mark Foley's
sexually charged correspondence with teenage pages more than three years
ago, long before officials have acknowledged becoming aware of the issue.

Late Wednesday, the No. 2 House Republican, Majority Leader John Boehner of
Ohio, asked the House clerk to investigate allegations that Foley, R-Fla.,
who resigned last week, was intercepted by Capitol Police trying to enter
the House pages' dormitory while drunk late one night.
