What bunch of lunatic scum -- both Republicans and Democrats -- are we sending to Washington DC to the point that we need to protect the House pages...and establish a 1-800 abuse hotline for them????

The time has come to dissolve both houses of congress and start again...no more Hasterts, no more Kennedys, Foleys, Murthas, Pelosies....

WASHINGTON Rep. Dennis Hastert, the man in charge of the House of Representatives, is defending his office's handling of questions raised about Rep. Mark Foley last year, saying the parents of a male former page were bothered by an e-mail Foley sent their son but did not want the matter pursued.

Hastert said neither he nor other Republican leaders were aware until last Friday of far more lurid computer exchanges two years earlier between the Florida Republican and another page.
