Thank you, Hollywood amoralists, for robbing millions of children of their innocence.   

All the concern over Foley's sexually charged emails-and- explicit-instant-message- congressional-page-scandal is way out of character for the leftist/progressive/anarchists, who aren't outraged over much of anything unless it pertains to George W. Bush.  But suddenly they're demanding to know who in the Republican Party knew about Mark Foley's predatory predisposition…and when they knew it. 

It should come as no surprise that there's a double standard here.  Liberals know perfectly well what their hero, Sen. Ted Kennedy (D), did that fateful night he drove his car off the Dike Bridge.  And the man's a revered leader in the Democratic Party! 

Let's face it, folks.  When it comes to our duly elected public officials, there have always been rotten apples in the barrel.  This includes Democrats and Republicans alike.  I'm reminded of forty-six-year-old openly homosexual Rep. Gerry Studds (D) who once romped through Portugal with a 17-year-old male congressional page.   The unrepentant Studds reportedly turned his back on his fellow House Members during the censure vote against him.  Not surprisingly, he was elected to five more terms after his censure.  Why would Foley expect to be treated any differently if he got caught wooing an underage boy?  Note that when his dirty laundry was aired, the media gods sent lightning, thunder, and a great hailstorm to Capitol Hill.  Yet there's barely a drizzle when a Democrat is caught with his or her hand in the cookie jar. 

"I still find it strange that just a few years ago the media and liberals were working overtime to convince us that a person's private life didn't matter when it came to politics. I didn't agree then, and I don't agree now. Character counts and it's a lesson that some politicians are learning the hard way." - Gary Bauer

What those in authority do in their private lives reveals what's in their hearts!

Lies, sex, adultery, bribery, perjury, homosexual liaisons, prostitution and treason are all in a days work for some of the men and women Americans hold in high regard. Here are a few examples to mull over:

President Bill Clinton (D) - Marital infidelity, two claims of sexual misconduct, lied under oath, impeached by the House of Representatives
Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich (R) - Marital infidelity, accused of hypocrisy and unethical behavior, forced to step down as Speaker.
Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott (R) - Accused of supporting racial segregation, forced to step down from his post.
National Security Advisor to Bill Clinton, Sandy Burger (D) - Convicted of mishandling classified terror documents.
Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D), Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, took a private trip to the Middle East to warn Saddam Hussein of an impending US invasion a few weeks after 9/11.  Rockefeller's information gave an enemy of the state time to move WMD and prepare for war.  Rep. Barney Frank (D) - A male prostitute living with Frank conducted a prostitution ring from his apartment, Frank was reprimanded for fixing 33 of the pimp's parking tickets.
