Dennis Hastert Is Indicted!

[EdwardBaiamonte]

It's probably Tom DeLay who was blackmailing him.

probably a liberal since more Democrats have gone to prison in the last 50 years than Republicans. Isn't thinking fun??

 

[Mustang]

I guess we now know why Dennis Asstart went so easy on Mark Foley.

 

[tinydancer]

Okay this is a new low for political witch hunts by the US legal system. Wow. Just wow.

Whether you like the man or hate him, I would think anyone with a brain or a lick of sense would realize how very wrong this is.

A federal indictment of former House Speaker Dennis Hastert for agreeing to pay $3.5 million in hush money, reportedly to keep someone quiet about past sexual misconduct, "puts the government in the position of essentially being part of the blackmail," Alan Dershowitz.

Prosecuting crime is wrong?

That's not what that law was designed for.

It seems he sexually used one of his students, you got any outrage left over for that?

Seriously why don't you fuck right off with comments like that. Insinuating that I'd back a pedophile is off the fucking richter scale lib.

He's not been charged with any crime other than lying to the feds as far as I know.

It's not a political witch hunt. He no longer holds any political office, and hence has no political power of any kind.

All I can say is you are one of the most clueless people here.

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

I guess we now know why Dennis Asstart went so easy on Mark Foley.

more importantly we know why FDR was so easy on Stalin and called him Uncle Joe

 

[SwimExpert]

That's not what that law was designed for.

Laws that criminalize making false claims and statements to authorities are not designed to prosecute people who make false claims and statements to authorities?

You might want to tell Congress that.

Caving in to blackmail is as good as a confession as far as I am concerned. Do you feel differently? An innocent man would have reported it to the FBI and the blackmailer would be in jail. No sympathy from me, a teacher who fools around with their students is scum.

Here's what I want to know: Was he being blackmailed while he was Speaker of the House, and was he being blackmailed into selling his vote and/or using his position as Speaker to further someone else's agenda?

 

[Sidekick]

Nothing about this adds up. In order to prove that Hastert's been paying hush money, court can't just rule out the reason why, so who is the "Individual A"? Charges against him are like the government is trying to hide something more than merely protecting reputations, something else going on there. I wouldn't be surprised if there's some corruption in the FBI where some agent gets "Individual A" to go around setting up politicians, as soon as Hastert stopped paying, bam, that's when they sting him.

The details will undoubtedly come out unless he just takes a plea deal. Sexual abusers almost never do it just once to one person, as they say on TV, stay tuned.

imagine the potential for FDR being blackmailed given that he was commiting adultery the entire time he was meeting with Uncle Joe Stalin, his ideological friend and world's greatest mass killer.

We were both fighting Hitler, a pretty evil man. Some on the Right agreed with Hitler.

You fool. Just because someone has retired from politics doesn't mean that there aren't people out there who still resent you and will target you.

All I can say is you are one dumb fucking douche bag.

Have you got any proof he was sexually abusing an underage individual?

Or are you just foaming at the mouth ranting on?
