I agree with Becky - the hill overall is corrupt in every aspect of life. I hate to say it, but this is small potato's to the crap that power has brought to the hill - Dem or Rep. Morons are those who believe that voting one way or the other will change it - try voting principle for once.

Why has it taken almost a week to secure Foley's office, documents, and Computer's??? To allow time for the evidence to be destroyed??

What am I doing spending time reading this garbage?

Congress Should Investigate ChickenHawkGate

I think we should do what the Republicans did in the 90's. I think we should spend 80 million of taxpayer dollars and hire an Independent Counsel to hold hearings that will shift the focus off terrorism and allow the Taliban to regroup and prepare for a new attack.

I say this with much sarcasm. I can't believe some of the comments I have been reading about it is not a Republican or Democratic issue. And I somewhat agree, the difference is the hypocrisy. Isn't the Republican party the poster child for 'Family Values'? Aren't they the Christian ones? Sure both parties have sex scandals, it just makes it the height of irony that the party that is supposed to be holier than thou is actually nastier than all.

This is also a time, for the closets to be opened. There is a much bigger issue here; mainly a cover up by gay Republicans.
Stay Tuned.

I belive Speaker Dennis Hastert need to resign now . because he let HR5680 (Ethiopia Freedom, Democracy and Human Rights Advancement Act of 2006) to be delayed untill the mid term election is over . and by then he will find some thing eles to delay the bill again. i hope the ABC news ask him why he is doing that. and we Ethiopians deserv good repaly from the speaker of the house . and i wish good luck for all Democrat and Repuplican in the house and Senate who are supporting the human right bill HR5680
Long Live America !!!!

I WILL vote a straight Democratic ticket in the upcoming November elections. I'm tired of the Republican BS. Enough is enough!

How disgusting to cover up the acts of a child molester for the sake of power. And Mark Foley had the audacity to be on a committee for exploited children!! How dare him!!

This whole story is about to come down like a house of cards. Before I explain why, Let me note that I'm not defending Foley hes a pervert and am glad he resigned.

However this page that the whole brew haha is about turns out was not underage at the time of this IM exchange. If this is all ABC has got then it turns out there was nothing illegal done here.
Now to understand why no action was taken on Foley even if this information was out. The answer is simple Gay Political Correctness which democrate can thank the small but powerful gay lobby.

Looks like Brian Ross needs to investigate Brian Ross and ABC for characterizing IM,s between an 18 year old and Foley as someone younger than 18 and the congressman. To me it makes no difference, the behavior is reprehensible. Using one's position of power to take advantage of an intern should be illegal, no matter what the age of the participants are. It is wrong in Foley's case as it was in Clinton's situation.

oh poor Matt Drudge. He hangs on until the last bum gets thrown out of Washington. He thinks he's Winchell !! HA HAHAHAHA
Let's face it, he is funded by the Republicans. Who really belives his garbage dump of a site?

Keep up the excellent reporting!!!! I am absolutely glued to me seat. It is like watching a train wreck, but I can't stop watching.

Becky, thebull --
You need to blink and get your focus where the REAL scandal is. It's NOT Foley. It's Republican House (lack of) Leadership. The best that can be said is they're ostriches. The worst that can be said is the truth.

You know what I think is funny? He's an elected government official and his spelling is atrocious.

Hey, but aren't ya just glad that the party of family values is in charge??

If anybody really thinks there is a difference between Republicans and Democrats they are sadly deluded (Bill Mahr correctly identifying this festering mess as Republocrats). Peel the onion too far and Foley would doubtlessly come out one of the lesser evils.

Once again this is a reaffirmation of the old adage "Power Corrupts, Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely." Foley is gone and hopefully he'll land in prison. It's too bad he will probably end up in some minimum security resort prison. He won't see a day inside if the Republican Party has it's way. He should be somewhere like Statesville in general population.
Hastert and any Congressman that allowed this to go on unpunished needs to be removed as well.
We need to remember that these Congressmen and Senators are OUR EMPLOYEES. If you do something wrong in the workplace you get fired, they should too.
So far this current republican administration has weakened our economy, reduced our civil rights, destroyed our international reputation and relationships with allies. The Middle Class has shrunk to record low levels and Higher Education is once again becoming a dream for the gifted but poor student. How much more can we take?
We need to replace the culture of corruption ad Corporate Politics with a representitive government that serves the needs of all the people.
If you vote please don't miss this election. If you aren't registered please get registered and vote.

It is time for the Christian Right to take notice. The Republican Pary does not represent their values. If Foley wasn't enough, it now appears that everyone knew but failed to act.

I think ABC should do a special on what the Page Program actually is. I am a former page (class of 2004) and I know a lot of people are asking to be informed about this seemingly aloof program they didn't even know existed a week ago.

It's time for the democrats to go. They've soiled this nation for too long.

Not accepting comments about Brian Ross?
