Hastert speaks to reporters - pics

House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., left, and Rep. John Shimkus, R-Ill., who chairs the panel of lawmakers that oversees the House page program, speak to reporters Monday, Oct. 2, 2006, on Capitol Hill in Washington, about former Rep. Mark Foley, R-Fla., sending lurid Internet exchanges to pages. Hastert described instant messages that Foley sent to a former page in 2003 as 'vile and repulsive.' (AP Photo/Lauren Victoria Burke)

6. Let's see . . .
The media got a hold of the emails Friday morning, and by Friday afternoon they had the IMs. Took what, six hours? The House GOP leadership had the emails for a year, and by Friday afternoon still didn't know about the IMs? Is that because you didn't know or didn't want to know, Mr. Hastert? And why did you bring this matter to the attention of only the Republican chairman of the committee overseeing the page program, and not share it with the committee members from the Democratic side of the aisle? What sort of disclosure and oversight is that, Mr. Speaker? Again, did you not know or did you not want to know?

13. He needs that woman from curb your enthusiasm
to yell at him to 'shut the fuck up you miserable fat fuck'. I think the character's name is Susie (Jeff's wife.) Ah here: Susie Essman as Susie Greene.

"Susie Greene: You fat fuck! And you bald piece of shit! Where's the fucking head?"

We need a Susie to go after these asshats.
