Thread Name: BS: Mark Foley Scandal
Subject: RE: BS: Mark Foley Scandal
Dick, there is a difference. One is defined as a punishable crime, the other (Clinton's) isn't. But the issue surely is not simply what Foley did - it is the fact that the Republican leadership in the Senate knew about it for some time and did not refer it to the FBI for an investigation till July; and then the Feebles did nothing in turn, until the scandal blew up in public.
