He bribed her with negative money. Will the left stop at nothing?

I'm jealous. You were referred to as a "militant homosexual" and a "purveyor of filth" in the comments of the link to your NYT column. Thank you for being willing to be a target. I hope more of us get the chance to join you at the whipping post, Dan. We all need to raise our voices.

Foley is out of his mind (apparently) and I am holding my breath waiting for him to come out of the closet. He might as well do it now. That would frost the cake for the Republicans. They can blame it all on homos.

Whatever political gain the Democrats capitalize on (as they try to keep it respectfully quiet), I fear the backlash (figuratively or literally) this will unleash on those of us that are out. Assuming he does consider himself a homosexual, he chose to keep it quiet to advance his career. What do the people who call Savage a militant homosexual think about guys like Foley?

After his alcohol "rehab" (whatever...) he will start writing the book and then he'll join Jim McGreevy on the tour to promote his memoir.

Their sexcapades are dissimilar, but their opportunism is frighteningly unsurprising and a result of America's sexual cravenness.

Wow. Almost as exciting as me lending my ex-wife money. I've known people, during and after breakups, to lend money to the other person. Heck, I lent $25,000 to a friend once, just because she needed it - and I happened to have it.

Can't recall there was ever any expectations of anyone doing something because of it.

So... um... I suppose Stefan has finally put a nail in the coffin of all those "Maria Cantwell is a lesbian" rumors the Gorton campaign had quietly circulated, huh?

The CWA is an association of cities and water districts in the greater Seattle sprawl. Unless you consider Bellevue and the Woodinville Water District spending a few hundred million dollars on a giant straw from Tacoma to Seattle lefty...I don't.

Cantwell had a boyfriend?

I think the apt title "Senator Slutwell" has a nice ring to it, don't you?
