Why won't Republicans who knew take responsibility for their own actions on Foley?

Because the Repubs care more about keeping power and control of Congress then the innocent lives of the pages who are in their care. I think it is ridiculous that their answer to this is, "we need to get rid of the pages." No! We need to get rid of the Repub leadership, who cares more about power then children!

Who takes resposibility in America any more?

"Blame your childhood"

"Blame your addiction"

Any thing but blaming yourself!

I've seen the images on websites trying to "show" Fox News tried to present Foley as a democrat. I highly suspect the image is doctored.

I've watched quite a bit of both CNN & FOX. If that image isn't doctored, it is a brief typo. I'm sure the newscaster was verbally refering to him as a republican at the same time & it was immediately corrected, because all I've seen on Fox was references to REPUBLICAN Foley.

And I have heard MANY, if not ALL of the commentors on Fox, not only condemning Foley, but also wanting an investigation in to who knew what & when. One conservative commentator last night said "If Hastert didn't know - he should have!"

Part of the confusion (again, IF the image is accurate) is that there is a democrat Tom Foley. IF someone made that kind of mistake, I sort of hope they'd get fired for it.

i'm truly taken aback that Spitzer resigned. regularly, a Republican will renounce when it comes to unethical habit (Foley). The Demcorats even managed to get delay to renounce in preserving with their witch hunt. Democrats, on the different hand, seem at scandal and unlawful habit as a fashion to augment thier political careers (Frank, Hastings, Jefferson). you truly could seem into information earlier posting, so that you do not embarrass your self.

In my opinion it because republicans pay millions and billions of dollars to win elections each year and they cant be wrong like for instance like president bush , florida was all democrate and one week before elections the whole state of florida turned republican and also cause his brother is governor of flordia and when president bush invaded iraq it was for two reasons one saddam tried to kill his father and two for oil , most people know that presdient bush owns oil refineries in in Texas, Alaska, saudi araba , isreal , iraq and iran etc. I dont blame the president for lying to US , if someone tried to kill my dad I would do the same and if I could get more oil and more money I would too . Most republicans would tell you it cause of weapons of mass destruction well there any none . And they blame Clinton for the attacks when he did all he can . Clintons not as rich as Bush and doesnt have many connections like Bush does . Why are Gas prices so high well cause were paying to have Troops die for oil and the price it cost to bring oil back to united states. I feel bad for the troops there putting there lifes on the line and there protecting oil and dying for it. The president paid every person off in florida. I would gladly die for my country but not for oil. I'm not here to call any republicans liers thats just how i see it.

Why didn't they take responsibility for the failures after Hurricane Katrina, the fiscal mismangement of gov't spending or after the failure to protect national security (9/11)?

I agree completely. They are all trying to distance themselves now, because to not do so would be political suicide. But the reality is that many knew and did nothing, and they cannot hide from that.

Your expectations of the Republiklan party are much to high dear. When have you EVER known a Republiklan to take responsibility for anything that they've done?

that was O'Riley,, Hanity blamed a democrat from 1982

Why are the Republicans responsible for Foley's actions, Do you know something no one else does. Or are you just repeating what you heard on TV !

youre question is too long

Why won't Republicans who knew take responsibility for anything?
