I think you're coming along very nicely. This whole Foley mess had turned out--for those who have followed it closely--to be an excellent primer on why dishonesty in government is a bad idea. We couldn't grasp the lesson when it was WMDs or Niger yellocake, or Condi saying she wasn't told of an impending attack when she was, or the Bush regieme cooking the books on Iraq results revealed through Woodward and the Intelligence estimate last week.

Its not Foley's alcoholism (if it exists), or his homosexuality. Its the party that has used homosexuality to scare its base and get them to the polls, when their minds should have been on higher things. Your party did this to itself. If you're the victim, you're victim to your own game gone awry.

You ask about the punishment the "young men and their enablers" should receive for trying to "fix" an election, and then try and suggest that they're members of some militant gay group. These are conservative republican operatives working in right-wing campaigns. They were outed by conservative websites.

Edmund has now hired an attorney, who is reported to have told the Daily Oklahoman, "There is not any aspect of this matter that is a practical joke nor should anyone treat it that way."

There is something seriously wrong in your party when it says one thing publicly when it knows the complete opposite to be true; the Foley mess is simple, and accessible, and has a prurient component which makes it great gossip, but the problem is far reaching and can be seen in "Mission Accomplished" signs and in the way Condi Rice reads the title of a Daily Briefings when she's called before the 9/11 commission.
