CNN has published a factless atack piece on Democrats titled 'GOP Presses Dems on Foley'. In this piece they repeat baselss accusations that Democrats orchestrated the whole scandal and report that Republican leaders are calling for an investigation into whether Democrats had playing politics with this event.
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Faced with fending off the backlash from the Mark Foley scandal, House Republicans took the offensive Friday, asking Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats to testify about whether they engaged in partisan trickery by releasing Foley's messages weeks before the midterm elections.
Top GOP leaders -- including House Speaker Dennis Hastert, of Illinois, and Majority Leader John Boehner, of Ohio -- have accused the Democrats of knowing about Foley's correspondences with teen pages, and waiting to release them until it was politically advantageous.

First of all, there is NO FACTUAL EVIDENCE that democrats knew anything of this and certainly did not orchestrate it. Mark Foley committed a crime and the Republican leadership covered it up. Now they are using CNN to try and shift the blame to the democrats, accusing the democrats of outing the child predator? Then the article goes on making it sound as if it is wrong for Democrats to talk about how outraged they are over this scandal. This article is a piece of filth and I ask you to help me put the pressure on CNN. The Republicans are trying to re-write history, CNN is their outlet to the MSM. We must stop this now, we will not be manipulated and CNN should pull this article if they want to have any credibility left.
