Foley

The most depressing thing about the whole Mark Foley (R-Maf54) fiasco isn't that it shows how narcissistic politicians and some gays can be. Nor the creepiness factor. Nor the unending hypocrisy of the ruling Republican Party. Nor the fact that the Democrats will likely be unable to capitalize on yet another scandal. Nor the fact that we as Americans are far more concerned about sexual morality than we are about FREAKING TORTURE now being official US policy, plus the added benefit of the suspension of habeus corpus and the further legitimization of the practice of warrantless spying on domestic political opponents.

The most depressing thing is realizing that I'm old enough to be the FATHER of that page that the erstwhile Republican Congressman was getting to talk about his masturbatory practices.
