The Blame Game
Who's to blame for all these terrible things that happen so close to election time?
Why, it's the two usual suspects: Democrats and the media.
For one, as always, it's the Democrats' fault. Did Democrats bring up the Foley leak now in order to influence the election? It's simple math according to many Republicans, including little Tucker. It doesn't matter that the evidence points at a Republican source or that the question itself exists only to divert attention from the real issues: hypocrisy and cover up.
Then, it's the media's fault. Duke Cunningham proves once and for all he's a human being by writing a letter from prison, blaming the media for his troubles. As the man so eloquently writes, “I am human not an animal to keep whipping.” Well, it wasn't an animal that sold our government to buy a yacht.
Meanwhile, in other news, while Bush spends quality family time on the HS Bush, soldiers in Iraq write about life in Dante's Inferno.

The media.... what a laugh. If this country had a media that hadn't been thoroughly neutered by the Chimperor, we might have been rid of his idiotic ass a couple of years ago.
You're right there. They're so good at using the media to advance their talking points, but when the people in the media dare to ask questions about obvious corruption and hypocrisy they become the enemy.
I can't understand why these people have to act like little kids. Seriously, they remind me of the crybaby who says, "You cheated! It's my ball, and I'm going home!"
As far as the media goes, I have written to Keith, asking him to do a report on how the conservatives are buying up all the media news outlets. Pretty soon they won't be able to blame the liberal media anymore. This is alarming.
You're right about the paradox here. The more control over the media they have the less they'll be able to blame others for their lies and incompetence.
Hello Sunny People and all,
Here's some red hot ink for your pen. Now help me vanquish the sword!
This Foley fiasco has given people the chance to change the make-up of this government, which will ultimately lead to the end of the Bush-Cheney reign. It may not be pretty, but it is a gift, nonetheless. Don't waste this advantage, and use it wisely to end the more pressing problems that face us all.
Want to better understand some of the desperation among top Christian politicos? Want to know what else they are pretending not to know about? Follow the links and read about who I am and what I have to say. Notice that my last name is Page? Think this "page" scandal is a mere coincidence? The timing and ramifications are much worse than most realize yet.
If Christian political leaders are going to go around attacking others for not living up to their professed values, it's a damn good idea to be truthful and actually walk the walk. Logs and motes in the eye, camels through the eye of a needle, glass houses, kettles and pots, and what goes around comes around, et al. Karma's a bitch when She finally decides enough is enough! This wouldn't have been so bad on Republicans if they hadn't been such arrogant hypocrites in order to corner the so-called values voters! Now the "Two Candlesticks" and "Two Witnesses" (Truth and Justice) are "breathing fire" and "raining hailstones!"
Christian Political Leadership, Hypocrisy, Duplicity, and Purposeful Evil
The current scandal involving Congressman Foley is merely the latest in an amazingly long list of blatant deception and duplicity by Republicans and the Christian Right in recent years. While bedeviling us all with their holier-than-thou pretenses, they consistently support and/or perform blatant greed and abominable evil. Never forget the extent of their arrogance over the last two decades and especially the last 6 years. It is beyond amazing that Christians continue to blindly support such obviously blatant scoundrels, even as they are repeatedly exposed going against the most basic of human values. The level of hypocrisy and duplicity boggles the mind. There is no longer any doubt, whatsoever, that Christianity is little more than a purposeful deception used by political and religious leaders to dupe, manipulate, and coerce entire populations into giving them wealth and power, which they always use for greed, injustice, and abominable evils.
The actions of Foley and those who covered up for him directly parallel the actions of scores of priests that have raped innocent children, preyed upon others for centuries, and had their actions hidden and abetted by the Vatican. Now, in eerie repetition of Vatican history, we have a power hungry Christian Emperor (GW) working closely with the Vatican and Judeo-Christian aristocrats to lead crusades in the so-called Holy Land. Furthermore, to leave little doubt about the reality of this assessment, the USA, as the new Holy Roman Empire, is about to legalize the torture it has perpetrated in recent years while steadily reversing many of the democratic and civil freedoms that people gained when the Vatican and royalty lost control of their European empire at the turn of the nineteenth century. Now we see them following the same old path of evil as they strive to cement the status of the USA as the latest proxy Vatican empire. Make no mistake about it, the new dark ages are looming on the horizon unless we do something proactive to prevent it.
Remember that those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it!

Okay... that was a long comment.
First of all, you're right in saying that even though this is not the worst thing the Republican Party has ever done it is a symptom of a larger problem.
Then you talk about symbolism and send me to a website about symbols and the apocalypse. That's okay. You lost me a bit but maybe you believe in that stuff so who am I to argue.
But then I think your comment is too long to be a comment so of course I do a search and quickly find exact copies of this comment on other blogs. That's a bit wrong, isn't it? I understand you believe in what you say and maybe want to sell a book. Maybe you hope your book will save the world from a nuclear disaster like in "Heroes." That's cool, but next time a short link will do.
XOXO
