You want it both ways

Yeti Handler — 10/5/2006 7:32:07 PM (archived)

So your saying that Foley comitted no crime, but the Democrats did by witholding information on a criminal act and releasing it in the face of an election.

Phenomenal.

        To reveal evidence of a possible crime is not aiding and abetting. - Mary Anne - 10/5/2006 4:57:15 PM

        If no crime took place, Mr. Foley has merely sexually harassed an employee. - Mary Anne - 10/5/2006 6:18:26 PM
        
        do you have evidence that Foley sexually harassed an employee? - Scott Evil - 10/5/2006 6:25:06 PM
