There is zero evidence indicating Hastert was ever shown the explicit IMs.
So...what is the left's outrage here based on?
1) We care so much about children that Hastert should have been psychic enough to launch an investigation?
Proof that's not true:
-Megan's Law-against
-Jessica's Law-against
-sex offender registration-liberals have taken every single state to court to overturn them
-NAMBLA-liberals defend them free of charge
-"Rape and escape" manual-liberals call it "free speech" rather than accessory to child rape like the law does.
-the right of 12 year old boys to sleep with men-you people illiterately call that a constitutional right in court

2) Democrats care so much about ethics that Hastert should have been psychic enough to launch an investigation?
Proof that's not true:
-When Newt sought to launch an investigation into numerous allegations of sexual misconduct on Clinton, liberals visciously smeared him out of office.
-Gerry Studds (D).
-Barney Frank (D).
-Mel Reynolds (D).
3) Hastert should have known that since Foley was gay, he can't be trusted to be around children.
That would contradict the left's hysteria against the Boy Scouts for not wanting to let gay men walk off into the woods with little boys alone.
4) Democrats just want to win and couldn't care less about kids, ethics, or truth.
Ding ding ding. We have a winner.
5) Democrats cannot form a coherent, consistent, literate argument in general.
Maybe that too.
No really, I want one of you liberals to reconcile the fact that your assertions on the Foley matter directly contradict the facts of the case.
