I'm gaining respect for Mark Foley.

[salinen]

Compaired to the hoards of liars out there trying desperately to blame anyone but themselves (R-USA). Confirmed gay-bashing homophobic conservatives have now become gay lovers and can't distinguish between same sex sex, and pedophilia. They do know, thanks to right wing radio, that these pages were sluts.

Mark is the only pub who has done right, so far.

[mindfulNJ]

1. Yup...he did right

...AFTER he was caught.

7. Mark Foley has done more for America than anyone

Because of him, we will have an overwhelmingly pro-labor, pro-child, pro-worker, pro-education, pro-choice, anti-Bush, anti-rich, anti-war Congress.

Thank you Mark, you've done more for America than you could have ever imagined.

[salinen]

10. I like your thinker.

[itsrobert]

2. I have NO respect for Mark Foley

He's a sick, sick, sick man. A predator. NO RESPECT FOR THAT!

[salinen]

4. I don't either Bob

but can you believe what's being said about those pages? Attacking the innocent is from the first chapter on how to be a good republican.

[TheCowsCameHome]

3. He won awards for one-handed speed typing. Very impressive guy.

[Avalux]

5. Why? Because he's hiding in rehab?

Mark Foley resigned because he would have been forced to leave anyway. He ran like a coward to rehab and has issued rediculous statements that paint him the victim. NO RESPECT FOR HIM.

[salinen]

8. He's the worst.

I was trying for humor. Hastert, Reynolds, and all the right wing mouths are a close second.

[Avalux]

14. lol!

Sorry - I didn't 'get' it; thank you for not being sincere! :D

[crikkett]

6. "Done Right" = run to rehab and blame an unnamed priest for his problems?

It's just more of the same: it's cowardice, blame.

1) People who know Foley have told reporters that they never saw him holding a drink.
2) Foley's attorney won't name the priest who allegedly molested F. as a child.

[nuxvomica]

9. No, he just blamed it on demon rum

I don't have much respect for any of these people. Their response to this scandal just validates my previous opinions.

[Disturbed]

11. No respect for a hypocrite predator of teens.

Heonly resigned when he was caught and now hides behind bullshit excuses.

[bullimiami]

12. HE GOT CAUGHT WITH HIS PANTS DOWN. then he blamed the booze.

he is a total hypocrite bastard asshole suckup sycophant.
he was wanking with kids and calling clinton names at the same time.

this went on for years.

[CatWoman]

13. I was gaining respect and pity for him

but it's all gone now:

15. never had respect, nor pity

dude was so arrogant per his professional/political profile crusading against exploitation of children and... well trying to exploit some youth. Then while doing the nasty virtual chat-deeds with teens - has the gall to seriously ponder a run for Sen in Fla. Was he stopped from doing this b/c someone might find out of his tawdry sidelife? - Nah, realizing that FLa GOP might hint/whisper the gay card during the primaries made him have second thoughts about that run.

Just another arrogant GOP office holder - acting vilely while attempting to project a holier than thou, 'family values' image to the GOP base.

[Mz Pip]

16. That would be a 'no'

from me.

Why any gay person would be a Republican is beyond me. Talk about being confused. Foley had to sit there and listen to his collegues dondemn gays; call gay marriage a threat to western civilization, blah blah blah. He took it. And took it and took it.

I have no respect for anyone who lets people use peoplke like them for political opportunism. What a weak little man. Supposedly the Repugs knew he was gay, but they still took his money and he gave it to them willingly.

THey all suck, every last one of them
