Panel: Republicans negligent in Foley matter


And it looks like GOP Rep. Kolbe alleged to have obstructed justice


A House ethics panel announced today Republican members of congress showed "disconcerting unwillingness" and negligence in handling inappropriate e-mails sent from former Congressman Mark Foley (R-FL) to underage pages, RAW STORY has learned.

A report set to be issued by the panel indicates that Republican leadership failed to protect the teens from Foley's behavior.
However, the panel also concluded that no specific House rules were broken in handling the matter, and no disciplinary action should be taken against the parties found to be negligent.

Well that report tells what values and morals the GOP have. It's ok to abuse kids and not a crime if you know what's happening and turn a blind eye.
I never truly understood why my Grandmother always said leave it to God, He'll handle it. I now understand what she meant. Bill Clinton's affair is nothing com paired to the sins of the GOP and the Christian leaders. The history books will show just what family values and morals the GOP/Christian leaders followed. Bill asked for forgiveness for his sin yet the GOP/Christians wouldn't except it. We read the results of what God allows to happen today. All those who talked the loudest are much worse then Bill was.
