Saying he was "deeply sorry," Congressman Mark Foley (R-FL) resigned from Congress today, hours after ABC News questioned him about sexually explicit internet messages with current and former congressional pages under the age of 18.
A spokesman for Foley, the chairman of the House Caucus on Missing and Exploited Children, said the congressman submitted his resignation in a letter late this afternoon to Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert.

Whew, what a sick MF. I simply can't understand this perv crap going on in society. He better get locked up, so he can ponder his motives.
However, in the world of politics...had he been a Dem, well, then he could have asked for the definition of "minor", stated he was setup and actually got additional campaign contributions.
Be scared....very scared.

Too bad this came to light right before the election, but Republicans should purge any other Republican homosexuals from the Congress. Having said that, Democrats still claim Bawny Fwank as their own after having a gay sex ring operating from his house! And they wonder why no one takes their "values" claims seriously.

If it's the former, see Dwyer, Bud. Hey man, nice shot.

". . . the chairman of the House Caucus on Missing and Exploited Children . . ." WTH!!!!! Why is this man (in congress?) on a committe where the issues are exploited children? What is wrong with people like this? And how does the voting public wind up with such sick perverts working in positions where they have access to children? Burning him at the stake would not be sufficient punishment IMHO.

Well, there are perverts in every profession and every walk of life. The differnce is, when it is one of ours, we admonish him and make sure they pay the price of their choices. The DeMcCacas on the other hand, welcome this behavior and elevates them to stardom.
Did you see the queer ex-governor of N.J. in everey lefty show just about a week ago? What world do they live in! I wonder.

Yeah I did too, many folks were like they are "innocent." But as we know majority of gay males go for kids.
