The other shoe drops....
Much has been said in the last week about the unfortunate matter of former Rep. Mark Foley. Everyone, on both sides of the blogosphere, has written extensively about the issue. Many have speculated on the motivation of the timing of the release of the emails and the IM's. Well all of a sudden, word is coming out.
"Two of the news media's sources of Mark Foley's sexually explicit instant messages to former House pages said this week that they came forward to expose the Florida congressman's actions, not to help the Democrats in the midterm elections.
But there are indications that Democrats spent months circulating five less insidious Foley e-mails to news organizations before they were finally published by ABC News late last month, which prompted the leaking of the more salacious instant messages. Harper's Magazine said yesterday that it obtained the five e-mails from a Democratic Party operative, albeit in May, long before the election season." (emphasis mine)
Democratic operatives were shopping this around for how long?????
What is even more insideous is this.
"Homosexual activist Mike Rogers said he will reveal the identities of homosexual Republicans on Capitol Hill each day "for hypocritically opposing gay rights for political reasons when they themselves are gay."
AND this:
"We're getting into very dangerous territory, and I've warned my colleagues to be careful." That's what a Democrat leadership aide was saying on Wednesday, as word circulated about David Corn's blog posting that revealed that a list of gay Republicans congressional staffers was circulating through emails.Such a list has been talked about for months, if not years, by more militant homosexual activists, who have threatened to out Republican congressional staffers or even congressmen if they take positions counter to their gay lifestyle."
Remember back in the 2004 campaign - when the Kerry/Edwards campaign felt obligated to point out that Mary Cheney was gay? These people are supposedly the champions of gay rights and yet it is apparent that they have no qualms with trampling those rights as long it helps them to retake power in DC. It is well past time for all people of good will to see the Democrats for what they are...people who will say and do ANYTHING in order to get elected and retain power!
