The House Ethics Committee Report released this afternoon concludes that no House ethics rules were broken by members of the House leadership in their handling of the Foley congressional page scandal.
Outgoing Speaker Dennis Hastert was privately briefed this morning on the report's findings by Committee Chairman Doc Hastings in advance of the public release of the report expected at 2p.m. this afternoon.

Meanwhile Mark Foley, seen last week riding his bike in West Palm Beach, remains in seclusion in Florida, staying with friends. Foley faces ongoing criminal investigations at both the federal and state level.
A spokesman for the Florida Department of Law Enforcement told ABC News they are conducting "an active criminal investigation into incidents, which may have occurred in Florida with regards to inappropriate communications between Mr. Foley and former House pages."

No wonder they waited until after the elections to release this piece of tripe. Rules were broken. Laws were broken. The House breached their duties to the children and their parents to protect them while under their care. These politicians have lost touch with reality.

Time to tidy up all these little "scandals" now that the election is over eh?

Yeah right. This congress hasn't found any improprieties against anyone in their party. I'm just glad that the anti-everyone that's different high-morality embracing Christian Right Republicans are now considered the gay party!

Yeah, the democrats knew about it, too...that makes them even more culpable than the republicans.
