This one, in my pajamas for the past few hours, is going to bed.

Good night, all.

This is off topic but what would be the best liberal site similar to FR? I spent a lot of time at DU, but the posts were so short and cryptic that I finally gave up, because I literally did not know what anyone was saying.

It was like listening to your teenager say a sentence and you have no clue what it is about.

I always enjoyed reading In These Times, The Nation, The Progressive, MS Magazine, Time and Newsweek, New Republic etc,.

I no longer want to subscribe to and read all those publications, but I would like to read other peoples discussions, that do read, and digest those publications, what do you recommend?

And as for Livingston, you are right about that too- that was a very good example of keeping a high standard.

Well damn, you're being all civil and stuff.

I would be extremely surprised if congressional staffers and other people of influence in conservative circles DIDN'T monitor this web site for what the base is thinking.

Venting our outrage here is probably one of the more effective things we can do.

It seems that the only thing left is to count on the Democrats to overplay their hand on this.

There are two words for any Democrats who try to politicize this: Gerry Studds (D-MA). He actually had sex with a 17 year old male page (and made sexual advances to two other underage pages the same year), didn't resign and showed absolutely no remorse about it. Of course, being a Democrat, he was reelected.

Maybe Foley could register as a Democrat and win his seat back. :-)

Well, in the world of child abuse, I don't think there was as much outrage in general in 1983. Also, the incident was 10 years old when it was brought out (if I am reading correctly).

Besides that, Foley has resigned, he's old news. Now they've got their sights set on everyone else who may have had info.

If this is true- and I believe it to be- let it stand as a rebuke against this one man, regardless of party. The Republicans will see that he gets what's coming to him.
THAT is the difference between us and democrat(is).
Our sexual predators are prosecuted; theirs are party heroes.
And one more thing, fellow "freepers": grammar- check your grammar before you post.

Cheers.

Exactly so.

And the Barney Franks episode wasn't any better; though the male prostitute, who ran a prostitution ring out of Franks' home, wasn't a minor, his activities WERE criminal.

And is collecting a Congressional pension to boot.

But that doesn't help us unless he switches sides. LOL!

That was my first suggestion for him. If he wanted to stay in Congress, he should have switched parties. You sure are up late. I just finished this project that will be posted tomorrow. Check it out -- http://www.zippyvideos.com/8287728826057446/its_all_a_lie_-_the_fraudulent_senator/

He could run as an Independent.

He and Jeffords could "caucus!"

Would you want to "caucus" with Foley? That'd be a good way to get a social disease.

Jeffords would JUMP at the chance!

"Foley is a Republican"




But he makes love like a democrat.










Im not going to wade through almost 1300 posts to see how many times that has been said.

How about that other well known gay Floridian, who supported the lowering of the age of consent, Janet Reno? Will she come forward and defend Foley?

She's been traveling the country in her little red truck.............. and has been mistaken for Bigfoot up in the far Northwest.
