Mark Foley

Yet another case of “Do as I say, not as I do.” What’s got me peeved most at this point, though, is the Republicans and their media calling him gay. There’s nothing wrong or scandalous about gay. Foley is, repeat after me, a PEDOPHILE. If he were gay, he’d be interested in relations with similarly aged members of the same gender. He’s been going after boys. It’s not the same thing, and it >is< scandalous. It’s like calling someone who likes to suck on toes a “leg man”. (Not that sucking on consenting toes is particularly scandalous, but you get my drift.) If your average run-of-the-mill pedophile was told by a judge, “Hey, just watch yourself” and then allowed to carry on his life without any consequence, there would be protests and outrage, yet this is exactly what Hastert and who knows how many other GOP representatives did. For close to a year. So they wouldn’t lose a seat to Democrats. These same people who impeached a president because of a stained blue dress have shown how easily they change their moral stance when it’s convenient for them. Again. And again and again.
