Quote of the day: Our Denny can't quit! His House GOP crime syndicate has too much unfinished raping and pillaging (as someone has said before)

"We're taking responsibility, because ultimately, as someone has said in Washington before, the buck stops here."

"I haven't done anything wrong, obviously."


-- House Speaker "Planet Denny" Hastert, not long before the earth opened and swallowed up his lying, putrid, blimplike carcass

Did he really say, "We're taking responsibility, because ultimately, as someone has said in Washington before, the buck stops here"
and
"I haven't done anything wrong, obviously" IN THE SAME SPEECH?!
LOL!!!
Can I get a link to blog this?

I stopped short of saying for sure that the quotes are from the same source, but it seems to be the case, and shouldn't be hard to pin down with more research than I was prepared to do. Here's how Charles Babinbton reported it in today's Washington Post ("Inquiry To Look At House, Not Foley"):

Hastert, addressing reporters in Batavia, Ill., reasserted that he knew nothing of complaints about Foley's behavior until the day the Floridian resigned last week. The speaker rejected calls for his resignation by a handful of conservative groups, saying: "I haven't done anything wrong, obviously. And we need to come back." At the same time, he said, "We're taking responsibility, because ultimately, as someone has said in Washington before, the buck stops here."
