Will Foley's folly take down the GOP?

The GOP has no shame. Rep. Tom Reynolds, head of the NRCC and a major player in the coverup, had a press conference today, knowing full well Foley's dilly-dallying with underage pages would come up and he filled the stage with young children, so the press couldn't talk about it. Neither does the NRCC home page mention Foley at all and I think it rather telling their poll on the side bar asks what scares their readers about Democrats. Wouldn't you think they might want to ask what issues their supporters consider important instead?

Meanwhile, the Foley scandal just keeps getting bigger. In the latest revelation, Foley interrupted a vote on the floor of the House in 2003 to engage in Internet sex with a high school student who had served as a congressional page." Further, he invited this underage boy to his home outside of DC for drinks. So in other words, this coverup has been going on for at least three years.

But you know what, such is my suspicion of this administration, that I have to ponder why ABC is breaking this story. They've been a reliable White House steno for too long for me not to wonder why they're making this so easy.
