It's no secret in town that Boehner feels like Hastert stole his speakership. It's also no secret that Boehner is likely loving all the bad press Hastert is going. Now Hastert is calling Boehner a liar. This should be fun.
Weyrich, a bridge to conservative constituents, said Hastert expressed anger at Boehner, R-Ohio, who has maintained that he warned the Speaker about Foley last spring.So who's lying, Boehner or Hastert?
“The Speaker was ticked by that one involving Boehner,” Weyrich said. “Boehner threw it in his lap, and said he warned him. The Speaker said no such warning ever came from Boehner.”
Oh, and according to the NYT, Hastert says he'll resign if it will help the GOP. But he doesn't think his resignation will help. So that means 4 more weeks of scandal with a predator-enabler at the head of the Republican party leading into an election.
