Anyone see Polly Klaas' father on Larry King Live?


Klaas laid it on Foley and the Republicans, turning the issue back to its crux - predators preying on children. I tried to find the transcript of it, but couldn't. He cut through all the politics and talked about the situation in very simple terms. Klaas said that while it's hard for him to be too shocked at anything anymore, he was alarmed that someone like Foley could end up in charge of writing legislation for Child Protection. Klaas said he worked closely with Foley on this legislation.

Anyone else see it? I wish I could remember more. Couldn't find the video or transcript.. :-(

1. Try Looking at Keith Olbermanns "COUNTDOWN"
That's where he was.
That was on MSNBC
Not CNN Larry King

2. I saw him on 'Countdown w/ K.O.' last night. His message was basically
the same, except at the end of the segment, he asked K.O. if he could add 'one more thing'.
Keith said 'of course', and Mr. Klaas says: (paraphrasing here)'I'd just like to point out that the Republicans almost got away with it..they were on the verge of ending the session when this revelation was brought to light. If it hadn't been, Foley would have been allowed to be RE-ELECTED.'
He seemed utterly and understandably disgusted...

3. He was on Countdown...
and he also said that every time he spoke with Foley's staff they were "standoffish" with him. That's weird.

4. Foley's staff is that way with everyone.
Unless, of course, you're a Republican voter and donor. I have a cousin who tried to get help through his office. The experience was not pleasant. I haven't talked to her recently, but I bet she's very glad he's in big trouble.

Original message w/screenshot of Klaas's website is here:

Note the 'he will be missed'.
