... is hardly "the worst possible time." The GOP 'leadership' in the House has known about this for YEARS. One of the AIM sessions recorded by the (former) page is from 2003! Foley's (mild?) perversion has been covered up for at least MONTHS if not years.

I say "mild" because, in the universe of perversions, sexually explicit messaging or even telephone chats with boys in their mid-to-late teens are not at the "deep end" of that pool. What I find more disturbing is the liklihood that Foley has taken his perversion far further than email or IM's ... and that the GOP cover-up has contributed to his molestation of a minor. Foley, on the taxpayers' 'dime' and 'time,' has been able to use a positioon of public trust to both travel and gain personal access to teens he may have been targeting.

GOP = Ghouls, Oligarchs, and Perverts.


It seems to me that the GOP is populated with maladjusted, people who associate sex with being 'dirty' or 'forbidden' ... and that's hard-wired into the eroticism for them. In other words, if it's not 'forbidden' then they can't get it up. Thus, they actually accentuate the 'forbidden' nature of what turns them on ... going so far as supporting the enactment of laws to add to the turn-ons they are most obsessed with. It's a whole political party of "spank me - I've been a bad girl/boy!" At the same time, these people resent those who freely engage in the same activities, but without GUILT. Guilt, it seems, is the flame that attracts a GOP moth.
