I have been really busy and only catching small parts of this story on TV in passing.
I don't condone what Foley has done, I think it's sick.
However, from what I've seen and heard on this, the Dims are going crazy. And, of course, blaming it on the GOP leadership. They knew, yea, probably so, and probably know about a lot of others doing stuff like this.
I want to ROTF laughing when I see the Dims (hello, Bawney Fwrank) going nuts over this though. A little hypocritical huh?The Dims are the GAY RIGHTS advocates aren't they?
I heard a CNN reporter on TV yesterday just breathless with excitement over this, saying it is going to sink the GOP chances for reelection, etc. I think I'll email them today and ask if they could get some quotes from Bawney on this (grin)
If the republicans in congress knew about Foley so did the democrats. This is equal opportunity information. Let's call for an investigation to confirm EVERYONE that knew of Foley's 'interests.'
There's a lot of stuff about Barney Frank on this thread. I wasn't aware he had any pedophile stuff in his past. I know he's gay but not about underage boys. Can you enlighten me?
Yep. The same people who vilify the Boy Scouts of America when that organization won't allow gay Scoutmasters.
But we don't know yet what Foley has done! We don't know who the page was and what his proclivities were? Maybe he approached Foley suspecting that he was a swinger? We need to know who this kid is and what his lifestyle is like before we can make judgment as to what happened here. Too many unanswered questions to declare this 'sick' on Foley's part! And I would expect that Foley would answer some of those questions to the American people! Any decent ex-congressman would do that even if he has an alternate lifestyle that would make Jocelyn Elder smile!
