"Mark Foley wants you to know...."

[Sparkly]

"Mark Foley wants you to know he is a gay man. And he wants you to know he was molested by a clergyman. Mr. Foley also wants you to know he is an alcoholic. In addition, Mr. Foley wants you to know his parents never hugged him. He wants you to know that he suffers from low self-esteem, and was picked on by other kids in high school. Further, Mr. Foley wants you to know that he suffers from ingrown toenails, foot fungus, dandruff, and occasional bouts of psoriasis that have caused pain and discomfort over the years. It was hard for him to pick a major in college. Somebody stole his pencil box in third grade, an experience from which he never recovered. Mr. Foley also wants you to know he's suffered occasional irregularity. He's not making excuses, however, and takes full responsibility for his actions. He's currently receiving treatment for all his afflictions."

4. There is only one question remaining: What kind of drunkkk is he?

[valerief]

5. Oh, my, you just cracked my empathy gauge! Very funny. nt

[Parche]

6. afflictions

What about the hemmeroids that he is about to receive from Bubba???

[formercia]

13. That's nuthin

I want to see him trip over his small intestine. I give him 6 months in the can. There's thugs there that will off him just to hear him squeal.

[gully]

7. The R's want to make this a "gay" issue and Foley is trying to

help them. They are also very much anti-catholic, and anti-catholic sentiment is part of the desire as well.

[Booster]

20. My thoughts exactly. His little "I am a gay man" speech was

meant to rile up the religious right - why else say it. It's not like nobody knew.

[LunaSea]

8. What, no evil twin?

[Sequoia]

9. Clergyman? What an easy scapegoat.

Now, the other night I lay sleeping,
And I woke from a terrible dream.
So I called up my pal, Jack Daniels,
And his partner Jimmy Beam.

[AZBlue]

10. I don't find anything funny about being molested or molesting others.

Nothing at all.

[Sparkly]

11. I figured somebody would miss the point. nt

12. Blah. Blah. Blah.

14. TOMORROW: "Abducted by Aliens at 22"

THURSDAY: "Partial Lobotomy at 23"
FRIDAY: "Joined Republican Party at 24"

[Joe Bacon]

15. OOPS, you missed his Halatosis

no amount of Listerine can help him :-(

[Pachamama]

16. So now Foley and the GOP's strategy is that "HE'S THE VICTIM!!"

:puke:

Nice try asshole...

You know what? My girlfriend was molested as a child by a stepfather....Later on in his defense and to explain his actions, he pulled the same shit. That he had been molested by a priest, that he was beaten by his parents and had problems with alcohol.

Needless to say, while its awful that he too was a victim of molestation, that doesn't excuse the action and needless to say, he went to jail. Just like where Mark Foley will be going.

[FrenchieCat]

17. That's it, that's it, that's it!

Foley is now officially a victim!

Which means we will no longer be able to speak ill of the poor guy.

He musta've called Rove for advice!

ATTENTION:
Foley is now the molested, no longer quite the molester!

Give me a fucking Break! :mad:

[beaconess]

19. Why does Foley think I give a sh*t? n/t

[dickthegrouch]

21. Then he had twice the responsibility NOT to be a perp

He knew the pain that it causes, he knew the consequences and he did it anyway.

FILTH

and he wants to drag the rest of us down with him.

Learn the language, filth: Gay is for adults who have consenting relationships.

[Sparkly]

22. Also: "He was intoxicated. No, he wasn't intoxicated. Except when he was."

"Mr. Foley was under the influence of alcohol when he wrote those communications. But he never drank during the day, when he was working. Oh, the time he interrupted a vote to IM one of the teenagers? He was uh... uh.... hmmmm.... Did I mention his hangnails?"
