Many Republicans are worried the congressman Mark Foley’s child sex scandal will hurt
Republicans in this year’s elections. But it may end up helping them because it draws attention
away from all the other scandals that might affect the election even more.
The Foley scandal distracts from Bush’s network of secret torture camps.
The Foley scandal distracts from the fact that the war in Iraq is making terrorism worse.
The Foley scandal distracts from the fact that Osama bin Laden is still free.
The Foley scandal distracts from the fact that Iraq is in a civil war.
The Foley scandal distracts from the fact that 2700+ soldiers died in Iraq for nothing.
The Foley scandal distracts from the fact that we are now losing the war in Afghanistan, too.
The Foley scandal distracts from the Jack Abramoff and Tom Delay scandals.
The Foley scandal distracts from the fact that Bush let New Orleans die.
The Foley scandal distracts from the fact that the national debt is about to exceed 10 trillion dollars.
The Foley scandal distracts from the Abu Ghraib scandal. And Haliburton’s no bid contracts, global
warming, the failed war in Lebanon, failed diplomacy with Iran and North Korea, ignoring the Geneva
Conventions, the United Nations, and the Anti-ballistic missle treaty, warrantless wire tapping of our
phone conversations, no weapons of mass destruction, and Bob Woodward’s latest book “State of Denial”.
So although this sex scandal is bad for Republicans, it isn’t nearly as bad as all the other scandals.
Besides Clinton won with a sex scandal. I think Republicans are better off dealing with a sex scandal
than dealing with a record of failure.
