Foley And The Gay Jokes
I would hope that there would be as many jokes if Foley was hitting on young female pages.

Foley's sins and the sins of his Republican enablers was that he hit on minors, not that he hit on members of the same gender.

5. The hipocracy is what makes the gay thing funny
Kind of like an eagle scout that holds up a 7-11.

6. The thing that bugs me about it is that his gayness isn't the problem.
It's the fact that he preyed on underage pages, and that the leadership covered it up, as you say. The jokes make it all seem like a "gay" thing.

7. sex jokes, that is all. After all, pages can be female too
and most sex jokes can be unisex

9. Yes, it is NOT a gay issue, it is a Pedophile issue.
Crimes were committed: solicitation of a minor, possible contact referred to in an e-mail. The REPUBLICAN leadership from #1 Hastert, #2 BONER and so on KNEW about this at least since 03 and before and sat onthe information obstructing, covering allowing illegal trolling to continue so they could keep hold on their majority.

That fat, gutless prick Hastert now wants to blame not teh CRIMINAL, Foley for his actions, but hint Democratic supporters and left-leaning organizations were behind the leak of the info.
forget hastert knew this YEARS before the info "leak". Forget that the Pedophile quit his office and forget the damning E-mail transcripts, it is George Soros' fault!

This is the Republican Party who signed their Hit on America (contract with America) in which they swore to get rid of the corruption and immorality. if they failed, they said they should be thrown out.

Hey Hastert, Boener, Santorum, and the rest of you crooked scum...Get the Fuck out of our House AND Senate!
