Gentlefolk,

I must admit that I have a more difficult time getting worked up about this than some do. Scandalous behavior has been a repeating feature among the powerful since the time of the Roman emperors – and was probably old before that. There is even a couple of guided Washington DC tours of the better good old American scandals.

Why expect these people to be any different than those they represent? Just uncover the behavior, put ‘em on trial, convict and imprison them – just as would happen to those they represent.

Lilith had the right idea: Throw the bums out! I do like the notion that the good Mr. Foley may be prosecuted under legislation he was instrumental in forging.
