That he and others in the Republican party are now trying to blame the Democrats for Foley’s behavior and the apparent party cover-up is utterly reprehensible. I become more and more disgusted by Republicans on a daily basis.

I already reached that point a decade ago, when I saw the GOP gleefully spending over $70 million to hunt down Bill Clinton and raise impeachment hearings over an extramarital affair. :rolleyes:

AP News Alert: The attorney for former Rep. Mark Foley says Foley was molested by a member of the clergy as a teenager.
:rolleyes: Because no one was buying the alcoholism excuse.

According to his attorney’s statements in the paper this morning, Mr. Foley was intoxicated every time he engaged in the lewd emails and IMs. However, he was never intoxicated during official congressional business. I read this, and immediately wondered about the IMs he sent during the floor vote.
There can only be one conclusion: Mark Foley is Superman. He can be piss drunk one minute, and stone cold sober the next.

So he was wasted while casting his vote on funding TWAT?

No, because he was never intoxicated while conducting official business.

Okay, I’ll bite, because I sense I have missed something.
What’s the bicycle excuse?

The point being, I think, that in at least one case he was IMing one of his little boyfriends immediately before a vote, and in fact interrupted his IM to go out on the floor. Which says to me that either the man has a remarkable ability to go from drunk to sober instantly or he’s lying about either only IMing while drunk or never pursuing official business while drunk.

You know the integrity inherent in being a Republican. Of course Mr. Foley would NEVER lie about either his sobriety while IMing nor his sobriety while conducting official business.
Hence my conclusion regarding his Kryptonian heritage.
It’s refreshing to see Americans can still laugh at their politics. We can certainly take a page out of their book.

He likes boys but funds TWAT? He’s having it both ways!
