I guess this crook and that NJ Senator Menendez will make good cell mates. Unless the country starts putting these criminals in prison, no one will learn. Jury is still not out on Tony Soprano in NJ however the GWB is open for traffic.
...as the longest-serving Republican Speaker of the House in history. What a great example of poetic justice!
And for a guy who was a couple of heartbeats away from the presidency, he sure is a stupid fuck. When the FBI asked him why he was withdrawing $50,000. cash, Denny said it was because he didn't trust the banking system. What an idiot! If he said he was spending it on HDH he would have been better off.

High School wrestling coach? Hush money? These dots are just too easy to connect.
I HATE the Patriot Act, but I can't say that I hate this outcome.
Now if Obama could only be forced to use ObamaCare like the rest of us, the circle of irony would be complete.
...since I'm a lefty and it would have looked like a partisan shot. You, OTOH, are an equal-opportunity offender.
but then if YOU had sad it, it would have been taken as a partisan remark, but no one can accuse me of being a partisan lefty.
But regardless of who says it, a former high school wrestling coach paying millions in hush money just SCREAMS pedophile. If he was just a high school teacher, the odds would be even money whether he was molesting little boys or little girls, but being a former wrestling coach takes all the doubt out of my mind at least.
Either way, I am sure he will deserve anything he gets, but I still hate the Patriot Act, I just hate it a smidgeon less after hearing this news. I hope he ends up sharing a cell with Jerry Sandusky
...in the first line of the indictment as "a former teacher and coach," not as House Speaker. Also, the indictment went to great pains not to identify the gender of the person receiving the money. The person is always identified as "Individual A."
Add to that Hastert knew Individual A for many years which means Individual A could have been underage when the acts took place that caused Hastert to pay so much money.
Newt Gingrich, Bob Livingston & Hastert were the three GOP Speakers who led the impeachment charge against Bill Clinton. Gingrich & Livingston turned out to be cheaters themselves and now Hastert seems to have skeletons in his closet as well.
