Foley scandal report could be released today.

“Speculation was raised that a report on the Foley scandal would be issued this afternoon, but staffers for the Committee on Standards of Official Conduct did not respond to rumors sweeping through Capitol Hill…A spokesman for Speaker-elect Nancy Pelosi said the California Democrat would be disappointed if the investigation is unresolved when the House adjourns either today or tomorrow.”

    Where’s Denny Hastert?


  2. Zimzone says:

    Hmmmm,
    Is Hasturd off the toilet yet?
    Does anyone really believe this report will be a comprehensive look at what really happende?
    We’ll see…


  3. Tom says:

    The Foley investigation report will be delayed. After all, Congress is busy with much more pressing business — the anti-fetal pain bill, the anti-partisanship resolution, the anti-flag burning bill, etc.

    And, if there is any time left, they intend to actually pass a couple of the outstanding appropriation bills in the hopper.

    Foley will have to wait — perhaps he can just stay in rehab for another month or two.


  4. ForTruth says:

    Letting the new Congress deal with it would be bad for Foley, I would imagine, they totally threw him in the wood chipper.


  5. Technodaoist says:

    Let me know when something actually happens.

    “could be” ??

    Pretty much a space-filler non-story at this point…


  6. Zooey says:

    I imagine it will be riveting reading — page after page…


  7. Zimzone says:

    Is it true that Ted Haggard will present the reading of the report?


  8. ForTruth says:

    “Does that make you horny?”

    Congress does like to release bad news stuff on Fridays, because they flee out of DC for the weekend and do not have to talk about anything! Plus the Christmas vacation begins for Congress members today > they do not return to DC till January 15, 2007, so Foley garbage might get dropped off to the press late today > lol.


  11. Zimzone says:

    Easy, Zooey.
    BTW, what do you have when a bunch of people gather in an Idaho bar?
    (A full set of teeth)


  12. Zooey says:

    Zimzone,

    I’m just following up on the Mark Foly joke! Geez…

    Good Idaho joke. Legal question: If a couple divorces in Bovill, are they still brother and sister?


  13. ForTruth says:

    “A little.”

    Don’t hold back on how you feel. :)


  14. ForTruth says:

    Zimzone, hilarious.


  15. SKdeA says:

    Is there a blue dress and a cigar in the Foley report? Should be, just to be fair…


  16. ForTruth says:

    “Did you measure it?”


  17. Zooey says:

    ForTruth,

    You’re on your own…

    Ahhh, Foley’s Folly.
    A new benchmark in the pathetic ‘Do nothing but Corporate Business Congress’.
    Zooey, in answer to your legal question…‘only until they marry another sibling’.

    Ah. Of course…so simple.

    How does one compliment the bride at a Weippe wedding?
    “Nice tooth.”

    Why isn’t Foley in jail? I guest if you have money and are a Republican you can get away with anything. This guy went into a treatment center that cost $30,000.00 a month. Must be nice to have that kind of money. Any other American that would of done this would of been arrested. There is one set of laws for them and one for the rest of us.

    It’s going to take a big bucket of whitewash to cover ol’Denny’s fat ass, but I’m sure Doc was able to find one. Beyond that, who really gives a rat’s ass about this story, anyway?
