Bay Buchanan reveals Repug Foley Strategy......Blame Gays

[KoKo]

Bay Buchanan was on CNN with Paul Begala and was raving that Repug Leadership needs to resign and she made the comment: "everyone knew about Foley."

I didn't know about Foley...what was there to know except that he's a married Catholic with a wife and two kids. (at least I think he's married with two kids...am I wrong?)

Anyway making it sound like "everyone knew" means everyone knew he was soliciting Pages through e-mails or everyone knew he was closeted.

Sounded to me like they are going to try to rally their base with the same old gay bashing theme to cover over the details. She was a little to worked up in outrage for it not to be covering a political talking point. At least that was my read. :shrug:

1. I agree. Paul should have shot back immediately

that it's Pedophilia, stupid. Being gay has nothing to do with anything going on in this evil bastard's brain. First thing I heard from the right-wing pundits was Barney Frank, so I knew they'd spin this to be against gays.

2. he's never been married and his sexuality

has always been an open question here in florida . . . but that has nothing to do with his crime. he was soliciting underage kids for sex. it does not matter what gender the kids were.

i fully expect the rw to frame this as a gay issue.

3. Where is Larry Flynt when you need him?

He MUST have information on a Repuke molesting an underage girl he could share.

Paging Larry Flynt !!! Mr. Flynt, you're needed in the War Room.

6. Thanks...will check it out ...there's some misinformation about him

circulating out here on the Web...even on DU. I was so misinformed I told a DU'er he was a Baptist! I don't like to get facts wrong...and I apologize to that poster for posting that...

5. Apparently they will try to call Dems

HOMOPHOBES. What a bunch of losers. Mindless, morality challenged, manipulating bottom feeders. They all should resign.
