OK, just thought folks would know, everyone keeps commenting on it.
There's only so much one can forgive.
Yes, YaYa, this is the same person.
Yeah, because Foley didn't seem creepy enough...
Steve Gobie
In 1990, the House voted to reprimand Frank when it was revealed that Steve Gobie, a household employee he had hired in 1985, was running a prostitution business from Frank's apartment. Frank had dismissed Gobie earlier that year after learning of Gobie's activities.[5]
The Boston Globe, among others, called on Frank to resign, but he refused. The House Ethics Committee recommended Frank be reprimanded because he "reflected discredit upon the House" by using his congressional office to fix 33 of Gobie's parking tickets. Attempts to expel or censure Frank failed; instead the House voted 408-18 to reprimand him. [6]
"Outing": The Frank Rule
During an anti-gay GOP campaign, Frank threatened to out a number of gay-baiting Republican fellow congressmen. He stated that it is unacceptable to out a closeted gay person, unless that person uses their power or notoriety to hurt gay people [7]
Many members of the LGBT community adhere to this rule in their own relationships with prominent individuals.
LOL!
MonroeDNA said Foley is a Scientologist.
Oh never mind then. Scientologists are a bunch of scandalous pervs.
;)
Foley belongs OUT and he is. Why would a young man respond to the so called solicitations??
But we want to know, don't we?
Much prefer him a Scientologist...lol.
I wonder what jurisdiction the state of Louisiana might have in this matter. The age of consent in Louisiana is 17. I wonder if they will they attempt some kind of prosecution of Foley for "reaching into Louisiana" to contact the minor.
Maybe Foley should have studied for the priesthood... maybe that's not such a good idea.
United States Congressman Mark Foley of Palm Beach was photographed receiving his very own leather bound copy of Dianetics and The Way to Happiness, with Republican State Committee member Nancy Riley.
The book by Scientology's founder Hubbard is a basic primer for beginners on the path to becoming true believers.
The Church of Scientology ran a photo of Foley and Riley on its website smiling with their hosts.
This was quite a shindig that included 150 handpicked quests from Clearwater to meet with Foley. And it was staged within the opulent ballroom at the Scientology-owned Fort Harrison Hotel.
Are you a cheapshot artist, or is this just a random cheap shot?
WOO-HOO!
Maybe he thought the lib MSM would leave him alone.
WOO-HOO!
Looks like he's a Scientologist.
It's absolutely amazing that Barney Frank is still in Congress. Amazing, absolutely amazing.
