I know that everyone is writing their own diary on the Foley matter.
It is undoubtedly a political matter.
Some are saying "by any means neccessary"
Some are Saying "Lets get back to the Real Issues"
I come to deliver (though I have some doubt it is original, knowing the size of this community and the blogosphere at large) an all encompassing message.
The Failure to identify the threat that Foley posed to Congressional pages is comparable to the Bush Administrations failure to identify the threat carried out on September 11th, 2001
There were clearly identifiable signs in each case.
The Republican leadership failed to act in any effective manner to halt the 'attacks' -- be it on Congressional pages or the Nation at large.
The Republicans talk up a good game of "Protecting" its citizens, but its actions Demonstrate Clear and Present Dangers to Our Security, Our Democracy, Our Nation and Our Constitution.
