Oh my God, my face is going to break, but...but...George Will makes a good point. Republican Christianist moral scold turns out to be gay and/or child molester, Dog Bites Man, amirite? But how did Denny Hastert make so much money in so short a time that he can slip $3.5 large out the back door without breaking a sweat?

I hope your dad will share his wisdom on Wonkette.

Never say "Denny Hastert" and "back door" in the same sentence again.

Surely you mean "Denny Hastert", "back door" and "large"

He would make a hilarious contribution here in a "how does this thing work? What the heck does BTW mean? What are these cakes we like?" kind of way...if comments were allowed.

It is compensation for injury. Is tax owed on that?

Wait wait! I want to join in on the pulling-stuff-out-of-my-assness that happens on Bullshit Mountain. Maybe, just maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe, Hastert offered Individual A money to keep quiet. Pretty hard to point the finger and say 'blackmailghazi!!!!!!!!!!!!1!' when it was your idea.

Wow, that was kind of fun. Now I see why wingnuts do this all the time.

So did you think I was claiming to be too young? Au contraire.

When will they change the name of the Billy Graham Center?

"Tornado in an Outhouse" is also acceptable usage.

Today's Chicago Tribune reports that Wheaton College, the home of the Billy Graham Center, aka "the Protestant Vatican," has removed Hastert's name from its Center for Economics, Government, and Public Policy. So not everyone is buying into Hastert's victim-hood. Hastert is an alum btw. Fine Christian education you got there, Dennis.
