I hear tell they did it three times, too.

Conservative leader urges Christians to vote their values

Associated Press

ST. PAUL - A prominent conservative Christian leader urged his supporters to vote according to their values on Election Day.

(...)

Dobson also said he has been "very irritated and disappointed with the Republican Party" and that GOP candidates whom "values voters" helped elect in 2004 have "sat on their majorities and not used them productively."

He touched on the uproar over former U.S. Rep. Mark Foley, D-Florida, who resigned Friday in a scandal over electronic messages he sent to former teenage male congressional pages.

The article you mentioned correctly states "R-Florida" at this time. The
earlier mistake was in the Associated Press' reporting as the story
originally appeared on the Web site via an automatic and direct wire feed
from the AP.

We apologize for any inconvenience.

I'm watching my news feeds, and so far, I've not seen a peep from the Congressional Dem leadership on this issue...either the FOX or the AP appeareances.

Any idea why we're only hearing the cricket chorus? why are we, the webroots, the only people voicing our outrage at this brazen fraud?

Why has no one slapped this woman?

At least liberals are finally exhibiting a moral compass about something. I am sure that they'd be equally outraged if Rep. Mark Foley were a Democrat.

The object lesson of Foley's inappropriate e-mails to male pages is that when a Republican congressman is caught in a sex scandal, he immediately resigns and crawls off into a hole in abject embarrassment. Democrats get snippy".

Find the damned piece yourself, if you're masochistic. I respect you all too much to provide an easy link to something that will make your head explode.

Morally Corrupt Clinton War Room Can Only Win By Destroying Republicans

Now, oddly, under circumstances where Foley is now gone because he couldn't last 30 seconds as an elected Republican once his conduct was revealed, we are now observing a frenzied call for Hastert's head for not doing enough to investigate behavior that actually pales in comparison to Clinton's. Now, the left is trying to say, and some people on the right are trying to say, come on, Foley did it, he resigned, it's horrible, it's creepy, it's predatory, why do you keep bringing up Clinton? The reason I bring up Clinton, ladies and gentlemen, and the reason I continue down this tack is that the Democrats are trying to portray themselves, the liberals, as people they are not. They don't care about kids. They don't care about phone sex. When Clinton or any of them got caught engaging in it, it was this is creepy, Ken Starr is a sex addict, Ken Starr is a pervert, and they went out on the attack trying to destroy Starr."

Good night. I retire to my nightmares after reading Coulter and Limbaugh on the same day.

The smart judo move, naturally, is to use the weight against itself by making this a story in and of itself.
