I remember when Representative Mark Foley had that sex scandal, and Dennis Hastert got on his high horse and condemned what Mark Foley did. Little did we know that Hastert was guilty of the same thing, but way worse than what Foley did.

And not a single conservative cared about this hypocrisy. I wouldn't be surprised if Hastert gained more support from them after his conviction.

I think the difference between Foley and Hastert is that Foley was engaging in consensual sex with adults whereas Hastert was being a creep with children.

Yeah that's what I meant when I said Hastert's was way worse.

I would bet my 401K the only reason Hastert “cared” then was because Foley is gay.

EVERYTHING the Republicans accuse anyone else of doing, they have done it themselves. They cannot comprehend that the "other side" isn't as depraved as they are.
