thinkprogress.org — At a press conference this morning, House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-IL) set up his staff to take the blame for the Mark Foley scandal. Asked if he was satisfied with how his staff handled the matter, Hasert said, ?I understand what my staff told me. And I think from that response, they?ve handled it as well as they should.

You people have to stop painting Democrats with the Republican scandals. "everyone is corrupt", not true, and right now it's the LEADERSHIP of the Republican party that is corrupt.

Labor , woman's rights, fair taxation, the working poor, single payer healthcare. If any of these concern you, vote green. Maitain the satus quo, republicrat or demoplican is just more of the same.

I agree with you, but the Libertarians would have the same problem as the Republicans, and for the same reason: both have a strong branch of the party that believes that Government is an evil that must be controlled. Bring either one into power in the government, and they MUST compromise that principle, or rule ineffectively.
