You are absolutely right. I'm sure that the intent behind these emails was entirely innocent -- perhaps this was a Big Brother kind of deal? -- and Foley, knowing that, though it best to resign rather than claim his innocence of any wrongdoing.
Or are you suggesting that the all-powerful Democratic machine forced him out?

In related news, it sounds like Hastert
knew for many months about Foley's work to violate internet stalkng laws that Foley helped sponsor, instead of learning just a week or two ago. Oopsie!
At times like these, I always think it's a damn shame that the Democrats don't have a Newt Gingrich. You know, someone perfectly willing to step up in front of the cameras and impute media stories about
women killing their children or
Woody Allen's sexual proclivities to the Democratic party at large.
And here -- here, we have an actual GOP member of Congress stalking an underage boy and apparently committing crimes that he helped pass! And the GOP Speaker of the House knowing about it, but apparently hoping it'll simply go away. Will we have Democratic party leaders explaining that the GOP is the party of Internet homosexual stalker pederasts?
Nah, probably not.
