Foley will be staying longer at Tuscon Rehab.
Foley staying longer at Tucson rehab

Associated Press

Nov. 1, 2006 12:48 PM
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - Former Rep. Mark Foley, who resigned over sexually explicit messages sent to male congressional pages, is remaining in treatment for alcoholism beyond his initial 30-day stay, his attorney said Wednesday.

Foley checked into a 30-day treatment program at the Sierra Tucson center near Tucson on Oct. 1. There was no immediate indication how much longer Foley would remain there.

"I can't say any information other than he's still there," attorney Gerald Richman told the Associated Press.

2. He'll remain in rehab until rove says release him and that won't
happen until after the election. I wonder why that is? Obviously republicans can't handle the truth.

16. That galls you?
Other things on OUR dime:

Cheney's shredding.
Iraq (illegal invasion) War.
Help America Vote Act.
Tax cuts for the wealthy.
Tax cuts and rebates for corporations.
NSA Domestic Surveillance Program.
Tony Snow's salary.
etc, etc, etc...

Just saying. Hell, it galls me, too. :)

4. Watch for his release on the 8th.
He's under orders to remain "in treatment," until then.

6. You're so right...The GOP has him on ice until after the election...
Never mind his actions are that of a pedophile, he's "in rehad for alcohol."

BWAHAHAHAHA--"Party of Moral and Personal Responsibility" my ass!

7. I was thinking the exact same thing.
When one of the pundits announced that the story wouldn't go away, but would be revived the week before the election because Foley was getting out, I figured an extended stay was already in the works. NO WAY were they going to let him out so the media could hound him before they get a chance to steal the election.
