What did Rahm know and when did he know it?
Rahm Emmanuel (who chairs the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee) was on ABCs This Week hosted by former Clinton advisor George Stephonopolis. Twice during a short time Emmanuel was asked 'Did you know about the Foley’s messages to or behavior?' Both times the answer was evasive; “I never saw them.”
That’s a clever side-step. He was asked about what he knew or had heard, not what he had seen. The Democrats have pretty much said that this was a scandal going deep and wide involving practically the entire GOP caucus. All that under their very noses...and they hadn't a clue until last Friday? Extraordinary!
Careful, Ms. Pelosi...if just one House Democrat had any inkling of Foley's behavior, the entire party will be hoist in its own petard.
