#8.

I agree. That was the first thing that came to mind when I heard of his departure. Upon reading that he may leave before his term is up just strengthens the conspiracy.

He’s a Republican, he lied, he made a bundle out of his “service” to his country and he’s moving on. What is unusual about any of this?

Hastert was wrong to protect Foley instead of protecting the pages.

“Earlier today, Rep. Dennis Hastert (R-IL), who was formerly the longest-serving Republican Speaker of the House,…”

Actually, I think he’s still the longest-serving Republican speaker.

Uh, he said he was not going to quit, like Gingrich, which he didn’t. What does that have to do with not running for re-election?

“Stricter ethics rules”? You’ve got to be kidding.

Under the new rules, Representatives and Senators will no longer be able to accept free meals — unless the lobbyist also provides money for their re-election at the meal. That’s “stricter”?

I wonder if Hastert remembers what his dick looks like – I’m a turtle, I’ve never seen mine.
