Rep. Foley resigns over e-mails

tickler · 2006-10-03, 11:22 PM

I've been waiting to hear what the RR and the soccer moms have to say.

"Odd, isn't it? The same people who can move their followers to boycott any company that believes gay people even have the right to exist, can't muster much outrage over one of their own preying on young boys and, more importantly, the Republican leadership in the House of Representatives ignoring it to save their political hides."

"In fairness to the FRC, they did finally issue a press release from Tony Perkins late Monday, saying that he is "shocked by this spectacle of aberrant sexual behavior." They then turned right around and subtly placed the blame on the gay community, saying that "this is the end result of a society that rejects sexual restraints in the name of diversity."

Of course they have to blame it on the gays, he blamed it on them (clergyman) and the booze. This one will be on spin cycle at least until the elections are over.

After 10 years of republicans making careers out of politicising Clinton having sex with Monica I love how they've changed their tune and keep saying "It's a shame how some people want to politicize this and ignore the real issue".

The real issue is that when this political party knew about this pedophile they had the Reelection Campaign Chair deal with it instead of trying to protect the kids. To me, that's the real issue.

If the guy was just a pedo and resigned that's not a big deal but the republicans were trying to cover it up for political gain and ignored those kids.

It's really sad how the religious leaders are following suit. Jesus would have had this guy resign in August 2005 and any one that follows his teachings would have done the same.

I have to LOL about this situation as much as possible for it just pisses me off more and more. The whole time they are craming 2257 down honest people in the adult industry with the protect the children speach they were protecting one of their own that was hitting on minors.

News just stated that he was in one of those chats with the minor when he was suppose to be voting on funding for the Iraq war. Nice!

Just hoping this party self destructs

Ran across this when I was looking up some info on his replacement. Now I realize that the list is biased because it only lists repugs not dems, but, I don't even have an adjective to describe what I feel about these pervs after reading it.

And they want to call us pervs.

Thanks, I think, for the link. Can't even force a small lol at the moment. Only read about 10 before I could not stomach any more.

At this moment I think I would rather be called perv than what I think of that list.
