What he is alleged to have done, and resigned over (and therefore appears to indeed have done) is despicable. He needs to pay a high price for it. But, there’s something even more despicable in this picture…
Who has been the champion of licentious and lascivious behavior for the past thirty-plus years? While some — and as still officially one of them, I say way too many — of their ranks have been caught with their pants down, their hand on the bottle, and the like, Republicans as a group have not supported such behavior. In fact, they’ve consistently stood against it (with decreasing vigor). On the other hand, we have Tipsy Ted Kennedy, Bu-Fu’ing Barney Frank, and a host of other Democrats who whole-heartedly support the behavior which Mark Foley has committed — and they’re having one hell of a party over his downfall. Huh? What a bunch of hypocrites!
And, so are the Republicans — for putting up with it all this time — God forbid they should lose a seat over principles!
