It's turned very ugly inside the moralistic Republicans' glass house


Very ugly indeed.

But let's hope it's going to get a lot ugler, for the sake of the nation.

It's turned very ugly inside the moralistic Republicans' glass house:

You'd think Republicans would have rushed to kick the bum out, seeing as how the GOP has claimed the mantle of being the party of God and family values.

Also repugnant about this scandal is the not-so-sly attempt by certain Republicans to have it both ways. They imply that Foley's interest in young boys is because Foley is gay, as if just as night follows day, gay men prey on children.

Thus, Republicans couldn't have moved on Foley earlier because they would have been accused of gay-bashing, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said with a straight face.
Not to be missed in this drama is former page Mark Beck-Heyman's explanation as to why the pages didn't complain.
