So Why Doesn't Hastert Himself Resign?

Denny Hastert, as speaker of the House (GOP) is now threatening to fire any of his staff members who knew about reports from pages about now resigned Congressionman Mark Foley. But Hastert knew, so why doesn't HE resign?

The Advocate wrote about Foley going after pages ten (10!) years ago. Their executive editor on CNN today said the only outrage they got from Capitol Hill was NOT about Foley going after underage males but for identifying Foley as gay.
