Ann Coulter defends the pedophile and his partners in crime!

[LynneSin]

I guess for Ms. Coulter she'd rather keep a pedophile in office in order to keep the republicans in control and who gives a fuck how many more underage pages this guy goes after!

Coulter spinning on Foley scandal

On the September 30 edition of Fox News' The Big Story Primetime, right-wing pundit Ann Coulter claimed that reports that the GOP leadership was previously aware of communications former Rep. Mark Foley (R-FL) allegedly had with underage congressional pages are "somewhat incredible," asking: "Why wait until right before the election to let it break?" and dismissing such reports as gossip, saying: "It's something you hear." In fact, Rep. Tom Reynolds (NY), head of the National Republican Congressional Committee, issued a statement confirming that he told House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-IL) about the Foley situation months ago. House Republican Leader John Boehner (OH) reportedly acknowledged telling House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-IL) about the Foley situation months ago. (Boehner has also reportedly claimed he did not remember telling Hastert this, and later changed his story once again, claiming that he had not told Hastert anything.)

3. AM Radio show this morning

plugging a morning talk show -- the host says "I'd rather have a guy in office who cheats on his wife than an arrogant incompetent boob. And how about Foley? Looks like the republicans weren't in bed with just Abramoff."

5. well, technically he's not a pedophile . . .

pedophilia refers to an attraction to pre-pubescent boys . . . what Foley is is a sexual predator . . . if any further definition of his proclivities is needed, the more appropriate term would be pederast, i.e. someeone who is attracted to adolescent boys . . .

"The term pederasty embraces a wide range of erotic practices between adult males and adolescent boys. Pederastic relations can have widely dissimilar manifestations – they can be spiritual or materialistic, lawful or transgressive, loving or commercial, compassionate or abusive – and have been documented from prehistory to modern times."

quite an extensive discussion of the phenomenon at this link, including references to different cultures . . .

Disclaimer: I am in no way condoning or excusing Foley's actions which, as I have said, make him a sexual predator -- which is wrong in any context . . . nor am I endorsing pederasty . . . but if we want to discuss the topic beyond his predatory actions, it's probably best to use the proper terminology . . .

8. A turd by any other name..........

still stinks to high heaven. Call him what you will, the perception is that Foley is a pedophile and in politics, perception is everything. I'm not trying to be flip with you, just telling it as I see it. Republicans don't do nuance. It's all black and white to them.
