The Five Stages of Republican Grief

As the GOP self-destructs over the Foley scandal, we clearly see the five stages of Republican grief:

Denial -- Don't blame us. We didn't know.
Victimization -- OK we did know, but Foley lied to us.
Minimization -- What's the big deal? It was just a few naughty emails?
Deflection -- Oh yeah...you should talk. Clinton got a blowjob!
Redirection -- It's all an election year plot by the Democrats!
