Murrow on Hastert

"Have you no decency, sir?" asked Murrow, using the words of a witness before McCarthy's committee. The answer by Denny Hastert---apparently not.
In an interview with the Tribune on Wednesday night, Hastert said he had no thoughts of resigning and he blamed ABC News and Democratic operatives for the mushrooming scandal that threatens his tenure as speaker and Republicans' hold on power in the House.

And what where his thoughts on the Lewinski scandal?

At least they were adults and didn't require a cover-up by the leaders of their political party.

Heading west on Rt. 46 (North Ave) just west of Carol Stream, but before the intersection of Rt. 59 is a poster for "Hastert for Congress". Somebody's gonna snatch (oops!! - I mean) grab that poster for a keepsake. He won't be needing that ever again. That fat piece of mangoo!!!!
