"Foley Keeps Penis Despite Scandal"Ok, who else saw it that way when glancing? Either way, he shouldn't keep it.

Banging interns isn't a crime though, and you're a f**kwit for comparing the two cases.

@david76OK, first you make your yard stick doing something "pretty disgusting" ("regardless of the legality"). Then you turn right around and dismiss what Clinton did. Cheating on your wife, disgracing the office of the President of the United States, and using your power to sleep with an intern are extremely disgusting.

Does this mean that all you digg-ocrats wouldn't mind being stripped of your retirement if you did something that was considered immoral but not illegal? Right.

It does sound like Foley passed some good, albeit ironic, legislation while in office. However, why is the age of consent in DC still just 16, the age of the pages when they come to Washington? No doubt parents form other states will be surprised by the age of 16, when many such as Illinois have an age of 18...

For all of you democrats who are "outraged" by this, please answer me this: Ted Kennedy not only has his pension, but he also still has his job. So which is worse? Dirty IM's to pages, or manslaughter? Democrats, again with the selective outrage.
