Hey, at least she was above the age of consent. Nowadays that practically gets you a Christian Coalition endorsement in the Republican party.
Above is the invite to tonight's fundraiser for the strangler, Republican Congressman Don Sherwood of Pennsylvania that John Boehner is attending. You'll recall that Boehner is one of the GOP congressman who knew about Foley's emails but didn't think they were enough of a problem. According to the local press, soon-to-be-ex-speaker Denny Hastert and our own boy-president George Bush are coming to town soon to help the perv raise money as well - and Cheney was just there to help the guy last week. More from the local paper:
President Bush and two other top Republicans will appear at Lackawanna County fundraisers for U.S. Rep. Don Sherwood in the next month.UPDATE: Political Wire reports on a poll showing "The Choker" losing to Chris Carney: 46.7% to 38.2%
Mr. Bush is set to be in the county Oct. 19 at an undisclosed location, two Republican sources who spoke on condition of anonymity said.
Vice President Dick Cheney raised money for Mr. Sherwood last week at a Wyoming County home.
A spokesman for House Majority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, confirmed his appearance here Tuesday. He is scheduled to be at a $25-a-person fundraiser at the Montdale Country Club in Scott Township, the sources said.
The appearance of House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Illinois, also $25 a person, is scheduled for Oct. 18. Other details were unavailable.
