You can't make this shit up...!

Mark Foley's slimy pursuit of Congressional pages perfectly illustrates the moral depravity at the heart of the Republican Party.

Republicans preach and strut, condemning queer families like mine, banning same-sex marriage because they say we’re "perverts," preventing us from adopting or fostering children, while they sneak into hotel rooms with both male and female prostitutes, divorce their wives when they’re undergoing chemotherapy, and sexually pursue high school students while heading Congressional committees charged with protecting children from pedophiles.

Throughout all, the one principle the holier-than-thou gang follows faithfully is protecting one another.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 — Top House Republicans knew for months about e-mail traffic between Representative Mark Foley and a former teenage page, but kept the matter secret and allowed Mr. Foley to remain head of a Congressional caucus on children’s issues, Republican lawmakers said Saturday.

What revolting hypocrites!

Not to mention, arrogant imbeciles. How in the name of William Henry Gates the Third could Foley have imagined he could send explicit emails to pages and never be caught?!

A quick net-search shows Foley has been fighting gay rumors for years. Watch Republicans denounce him now and turn this into a "Gays are molesters" issue. Bastards.
