There's a certain poetic symmetry to the Foley scandal
It's as if Karma is paying the republicans a long overdue visit.

All their manufactured scandals and scorched earth policies and lies and innuendo and demonization of anyone who stood up to them or challenged their power from Kerry, to Clinton, to Gore, to Max Cleland, to even McCain.

All of it comes back to them by one REAL scandal brought on by hubris and arrogance.

Karma's a bitch.

1. Yes, they were absloutely hateful to Nam vets in the last election
As with Cleland, the more limbs he lost, the more hateful they were. I will never forgive them. Their twisted hatred was branded in hell.

2. Yep. It was suggested today we're concentrating on the wrong
thing, but this is the one Dems have nothing to do with; repugs are imploding, and everything else will roll into the swirl hopefully.

3. They are a sickening lot right now.
What do they stand for?

4. Now? They got caught, pure and simple. They've always been
sickening, and have always stood for the almighty dollar. I have not seen one instance of them doing what was 'right', only what was best for them and the cabal. We never mattered.
