I loved the remarks made on Keith Olbermann the other night. Comments on how these "rehab" stays are more spas--anything to get the offending person off the front page.
According to two people close to former congressional page Jordan Edmund, the now famous lurid AOL Instant Message exchanges that led to the resignation of Mark Foley were part of an online prank that by mistake got into the hands of enemy political operatives, the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal.

I also don't think that the public is so dumb as to forget the real issues because of a stupid Congressman--the press maybe, the public never.

Is this really all just a show, or is the current 2 party system just plain busted? I know the trends are cyclical, but it is my opinion that the PTB that really control the country will get their way regardless of what party is dominant. Overall I think a scandal like this is bad for America in general, and there are other ways than this to change the dominant party.
