Mark Foley was molested at 14 by clergy! Whatever!

Yeah I agree, it's not a bombshell, but we won't hear the Dems crying about having compassion because he suffered abuse as a kid, will we?

It's been orchestrated, IMO.

"finally, Mark Foley wants you to know he is a gay man."

I gotta say, that was the strangest way to end the presser. Not sure I see the point of it.

You're lucky you wised up to him. No doubt less savvy boys were hurt by him.

"Just stay away from the Creationist/Evolution threads. I made that mistake early on and soon learned that they are the cesspool of FR."

Oversight detector went off. This is Free Republic. The cesspool--and its concession stand--are over at DU. It is rather hand to hand with Kabars in the mud of intellectual bomb craters. And yes, I agree, everyone bleeds on those threads!

He and a guy named Aravosis have outed 20 some staffers and politicians as of August, 2004. http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/0808-01.htm

Gays want their rights and they'll destroy anyone's career if they stand in the way.

"What does that mean, anyway? You can't just repeat parts of initialisms and acronyms and expect them to maintain any meaning. That's not how you add emphasis (or any other semantic meaning) in the English language."

I know it's asking a lot, but the phrases could be considered near the ranks of the stuned beeber...

"The USASASA is protected by a network of RADARARARs."
"I went SCUBABABA diving. "
"I will use my laserererer pointer."
"Look at my shiny new DVDVDVDVD."

And Caesar, this is all meant in good fun.
IMHHHHO, you hit a homer;)

The FBI has Brian Ross's phone records and the phone records of his leaker in the CIA.

Ross is hysterical because he knows his CIA sources are going to be indicted soon and that it's likely that he will have to testify as an unindicted co-conspirator.

Ross is deep in over his head with all the CIA leaks and it will be fun to see what happens when he's named in the indictment.

Not sure I see the point of it.

Maybe to imply the Dems are attacking a gay man?

We would hang out and talk. It took a few weeks for me to figure out where he was going with this, and I stopped having any non-business contact with him.

I know I'm going to get flamed for this, but many -- if not most -- young males in that age group aren't entirely "victims" in the fullest sense of the word.

When I was a kid I had a friend who went through a similar thing at the age of 15. When the older man eventually made his move, this kid laid such a thorough beating on him that the predator actually reported the incident to the police as if he was the one who had been assaulted.

I hope you're correct. He is one slimy guy. But we've been hearing about NSA leak investigations now for months...and no info on them yet- so I'm not getting my hopes up.

" Foley molested by Catholic clergy! "

He was molested by Republicans in DC ??
Chris Matthews said on the Tonight Show last night that Republicans in DC were acting like Catholic priests during the last scandal.

To say that pedophilia exists only when the individual engages in sexual "contact" with minors is an anachronism in this day and age. They don't call it internet "sex" or phone "sex" for nothing, I'm afraid.

True, it might not have the exact damaging effects that the acts might have if there was physical contact, but the emotional, psychological, moral and spiritual damage can be just as awful.

Just like stalking that is done by phone or IM or email---it can be just as frightening and damaging as stalking done physically in proximity to the victim.

using Foley to cast doubt in voters' minds about every single Republican running for election in November, especially Dennis Hastert!


That's exactly what they;re doing and they don't care by what criminal means or how many lives they destroy to get there.
