LTTE: Pages should wear burqas as to avoid tempting weak willed
Edited on Sat Oct-07-06 04:45 PM by helderheid
pedophiles in office.

I'm working on it. :)

Here it is:


In response to Chris Cannon's opinion that the blame in the Foley case
lies with 'precocious kids' and their irresponsible parents, might I
suggest that the page system be overhauled with a new dress code. Burqas
are worn by women as to not tempt men, so why not have the pages wear
them too? After all, we can't have them tempting any weak willed
pedophiles working on Capitol Hill.

3. ...and this, class, is an example of a "bad touch"

"...you should be safe however if you put your Foley Suit on correctly. Any questions?"

Bomb safe, grope safe. You won't feel a thing, young man.

Do they have these in sand and chocolate chip pattern?

4. Good idea - I about barfed when I heard the talking point

about the page program having outlived its usefulness, a "flawed program," and all that
desperate bullshit - don't take no responsibility for nothin' - even pedophilia - is that
the Republican way?

10. How about chastity belts for naughty congressmen?
If they become, er, uncomfortable, well, those naughty
old boys should be using some self-restraint anyway.

13. That's perfect
Do you live in Chris Cannon's district?? We should compile a list of newspapers in his district and make sure this letter goes in all of them. I don't think Utah moms will be too impressed.

18. By the time the GOP trims your program down...
You'll be lucky to get a small Korean made mudflap over their asses! If it ain't something to make rich people even more money, the GOP won't go for it!

24. history of Xnty (+ other religions?)
WOMEN must coverup, be secluded, etc, so that they will not tempt MEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IOW, MEN have no self-control, self-discipline and therefore WOMEN must be controlled.

I HAVE NEVER EVER UNDERSTOOD THIS 'REASONING'.
