25. By God you

did call it.

[karlrschneider]

5. Thanks for the details.

...

[Bluebear]

6. Foley wants us to know he is a gay man.

No shit, Sherlock.

[deathdog]

28. But he's been denying it for years

Lying piece of crap.

Some of us come out without having to be caught in a scandal first, you cowardly low-life!

[joemurphy]

7. Sheesh n/t

[patricia92243]

8. I cannot believe CNN is not carrying this.

[stevietheman]

12. It was covered a bit on Headline News n/t

n/t

[karlrschneider]

15. AHHH...on M$NBC....NOT on CNN!

yikes

[Maine-ah]

32. on cnn right now.

[Avalux]

9. Evil bastards.

Everyone's supposed to feel sorry for him now? He's the victim, it wasn't his fault. x(

[Liberal Veteran]

10. Wait...aren't GrOPers the one that say childhood trauma is no excuse?

:shrug:

[Broken_Hero]

17. yeah, good point to bring up....nt

[demgurl]

11. Whatever the reason, his actions were not right.

He is out of office and will pay. What we need to do now is focus on who, in government knew. This will weed out the others since Foley will never come back from this scandal.

[zreosumgame]

13. well, now he can sue a priest

all about the benjamins baby!

[Bake]

14. And just yesterday he blamed it on booze.

What will it be tomorrow? He's still toast, and so is Hastert.

Bake

[Ian David]

22. Liquer than beer, never fear. Beer than liquer, young-boy sticker. n/t

[Ian David]

16. And what's Hastert's excuse for covering it up?

Shouldn't Foley have gotten help after molesting... oh, one or two or three kids?

[plcdude]

20. Hastert was a wrestler

enough said.

[Ian David]

27. Hey, I wrestled. Al Franken wrestled.

I can't speak for Al, but I know that I've never had the desire to hold sway over a harem full of under-age kids...

At least, not since I was under-age myself.

[Warren DeMontague]

23. Maybe because that's what the Vatican does?

And they seem to get away with it often enough.

[BattyDem]

18. So that gives him the right to molest others?

:eyes:

[LTR]

19. Ironic for the 'party of personal responsibility'

The GOP: Stick a fork in 'em.

[SeattleGirl]

21. Fer chrissakes! Can't these fuckers EVER take any personal

responsibility for anything they do? It's ALWAYS everybody else's fault but their own. :grr: :grr: :grr:

[acmavm]

24. Oh how trite and tacky is that yarn? Take a two cups of pedophilia, mix in

a tablespoon of clergy abuse, a dash of alcoholism, and viola - pederast pot pie.

[spoony]

29. It's a mind-boggling concoction

It's like he's just tossing out every excuse he can come up with, to see if anything sticks. :crazy:

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

26. the Party of Personal Responsibility in action yet again

now he's away at country club detox, keeping rush's bed warm

[Rocknrule]

30. Bill Clinton abused him as a child!

:rofl:

[deathdog]

31. It's always the Clenis

[vickitulsa]

33. I don't think I've heard so many fast-changing responses

and excuses before by anybody caught in the act of criminal behavior of a most vile nature.

First his lawyer was saying Foley was NOT a pedophile, just an alcoholic who was sometimes "inappropriate" in what he said to pages. The asshole checks himself into a rehab center so fast it makes yer head spin, so he can be out of touch and out of reach for a time while he "fights his demons."

Sorry, wrong demons you're fighting there, buddy!

I am so glad to see that for once a disgusting Repuke criminal is unable to get himself completely out of the corporate media's limelight, and I figure that these comments as well as a lot of the other really bad stuff on Foley will get air time on CNN et al before it's all over.

Those actual IMs I read earlier today -- man, those were horrible, and absolutely UNexplain-awayable! He was having 'Net sex even while he was sitting on the House floor, during a vote! At least he was typing through it with a teenager, and mocking the very job he was sent to D.C. to do.

I wanted to :puke: -- and may yet if any more incredibly revolting revelations come out about this criminally liable creep....
