The Foley Follies

Well there is no doubt on this one...Foley did it. Now let loose the dogs of war...Investigations, accusations, political maneuvering and all the rest. The latest is that Foley has checked himself into a substance abuse clinic because he has had the sudden realization that he is an alcoholic. Maybe he is, and then again maybe it doesn't really matter. The point is, he was caught in a really bad situation and now has to face the consequences...Period.

What I know, is that this thing is weird and will get increasingly more weird until it will be difficult to make any kind of logical assumptions. We will be shot gun blasted with points and counterpoints, explanations and rationalizations, and all kinds of groovy things. So when this does happen, and it will, just remember one thing. Mark Foley engaged in a series of seriously inappropriate relationships and that is that. Everything else is just fillers and meat bi-products.

Foley was born September 8, 1954.

I had just read that he was also abused by a member of the clergy. There is no correlation between being abused and sexually acting out. Studies show this.
