A victory is a victory... but I don't like the terms.
While it looks like this whole Foley Buggergate deal is going to throw the pugs off their game and possibly cost them the majority rule, I really dont like a victory as a result of a sex scandal. Sure the irony is delicious, but they need to be tossed by the masses for the more egregious transgressions like the war, torture, spying, etc.

Oh well... a win is a win... but a change in the majority "as a result of a sex scandal" lets the rats off too easy and lets them avoid having to take some amount of responsibility for their disastrous agenda. More importantly, it takes the focus off shrub as the reason for the sea change which is exactly how this (predicted) loss of the majority will be spun..."As something other than being about Bush"..... :mad:

BTW...I'm looking forward to Polosi as the next speaker.... :toast:

1. The sex scandal is just the fuse that's blowing up all their lies
ALL of their crap is coming out now - any way we can get that to happen is ok with me.
