1. he knows if he pops his head up he'll be a target
He is busily encouraging Repubs to vote absentee before any more "bad news" comes out.

2. I wouldn't really characterize it as a "gay scandal"
For me it would be just as much a scandal if the pages had been underage females.

4. Under age girls.
'Females' as a noun is kind of an insult because it is not exclusive to humans.

10. Exactly, and leaderships' failure to protect the youth
from a known predator.

Some of the kids had sought help, complained years ago. Nothing was done and Foley was allowed to keep using his office to assess new pages and pick his targets. He was allowed to keep his role as head of the nation's program on exploited children!

3. Hopefully scanning the classified ads under "help wanted"
Or else sniffing around in Mark Foley's laundry basket.

5. That would be closeted gay chairman of the RNC.
And he probably wants to keep it that way considering the fact that his party is unable to differentiate between gays and pedophiles.

9. It`s not his gayness that bothers me.
It`s his hypocrisy.

12. He's Spending Money...
Check out TPM for all the money the RNC is dumping in slime ads in races all over the country. He's also organizing the GOTV effort...Foley be damned. It's Kenny's job right now to get the vote out...Foley or no Foley...gay or not.

I'm more curious about Kenny's connections to Jack Abramoff.
