Foley Scandal: Sexual Equivalent of Missing the "Bin Laden Determined To Strike in US" PDB

Kondracke: Foley scandal "the sexual equivalent of cash in your freezer": "On Special Report, Morton Kondracke stated that the scandal surrounding former Rep. Mark Foley is 'the sexual equivalent of cash in your freezer,' referring to bribery allegations against Rep. William Jefferson. "
First, the Republican need to find a Democratic equivalent to the latest in a never-ending string of corruption scandals is understandable, except that the comparison is supposed to suggest that it is an equivalent "no-brainer" in terms of evidence.

However, it is not the "sexual equivalent of cash in your freezer." It is the sexual equivalent of missing the "Bin Laden Determined To Strike in US" PDB and then for five years distracting Americans by shooting at the wrong target--other Americans, specifically--liberal Americans.

It is how these Gingrich/Rove/neocon Republicans win elections, keep their majority and operate while in power--through deceit, chronyism and corruption--had enough yet?
