It's safe to say that speaking inappropriately online with minors is an actionable offense. I mean, by now, we've all seen at least one episode of perverted justice in 48 hours, with Chris Hanson. If not, check it out..it will blow your mind.
What Foley did was unconscionable and I'm glad to see that he resigned. What is more disturbing at this point, other than the fact that ABC news actually read some of these IM exchanges on the air, is that there are reports that the Republican leadership knew about these lascivious exchanges were going on, but did nothing about it. In particular, Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert is coming under fire, as he was supposedly made aware of these cyberspace liaisons almost a year ago. Some are even going so far as to ask for his resignation for the coverup.
Over the weekend, Newt "Where have you been hiding that pasty white ass" Gingrich was interviewed and he said that Republican leadership probably kept it quiet so they wouldn't be accused of Gay bashing. Um...hold on a sec....I have to go...WHAT!!!??
Gay bashing? and Pedophilia....? I don't know guys. As Jon Stewart said last night on the Daily show...(paraphrased) Comparing homosexuals with pedophiles...that wouldn't be gay bashing right there, would it?
Of course, those on the right who have the GOP's back on any and everything, are blaming the Democrats...I've yet to see how it can possibly be the fault of the Democrats that a Republican Congressman flirted with underaged boys, and it as covered up by HIS OWN PARTY!!!
Oh, and I'm not going to even do more than mention that Foley was the chair of the committee on exploited children
Can someone just give me the dimensions of that handbasket we're in, and whether it's insulated...I need to know what I need to pack for our trip down into the pit of hell
