taxtaxtaxtaxtax

The nickname most often used by those who have known him all their lives and who went to school with him is Tinkerbell. As a Congressman for my district in Florida, he has been part of the Republican Party’s continuing insistence that the major problem with America today is pornography and civil rights for gay people and he's tried to pass legislation that made it a felony to draw a naked picture of a child. He is very upset that there are nudist colonies in Florida.

It’s come under public scrutiny this week that Mark Foley has been sending “creepy” e-mails to a 16 year old congressional page. There’s nothing illegal about it or the hypocrisy involved and I’m quite sure that the Congressman isn’t going to sponsor legislation making it so and I’m also fairly certain that the Party that still thinks Pornography is more important than maintaining the rule of law, than democracy, than an independent judiciary, than illegal warfare, illegal surveillance, Habeas Corpus or the bill of rights will continue to protect him under their vast umbrella of lies.

Foley, who has already begin his slime campaign against Democratic challenger Tim Mahoney, using fabricated facts and coy denial of his own record. will probably win anyway although as of 3:00 PM Eastern, the talk is that he will resign but still assert his innocence. Absent a blue dress with a stain on it, all any Republican has to do is use the word liberal or chant taxtaxtaxtax for a moment and the brainwashed manikins will robotically cast their votes, mumbling about Jane Fonda or Ted or Theresa or Hillary.

America doesn’t give a damn and doesn’t know anything and doesn’t want to. No amount of proof that Bush ignored Clinton’s plan to go after al Qaeda matters. No amount of proof that Bush ignored all warnings and demanded to hear only about Iraq; no amount of evidence that Bush was warned again and again that the UN and France was right and Saddam had no significant weapons or the ability to make them means anything. In fact on the same day Bush effectively was promoted to the pantheon of gods by being given the power of life and death over anyone he chooses without hearing a peep out of the courts or Congress, my mailbox filled up with sneering, giggling parodies of the next Democratic Convention – filled with Michael Moore, Ted Kennedy and the Dixie Chicks burning flags and wanting to impeach Bush for “protecting the country.”

It’s not just that we are a stupid, superstitious and bigoted nation or an ignorant and cowardly nation; we are a criminally demented nation, unsuited for Democracy and a danger to civilization.

Never has my atheist heart yearned more for a God who would sit in judgment on America and give me hope that some day, George W. Bush and his minions would be rendered unto some dark and secret place to undergo “Coercive” procedures for ever and ever, world without end.

Looks like Tinkerbell just dropped out of the race. Probably to spend more time with children. I'd say his children but he doesn't have any.

Funny about these moralizers, gay bashers and "values" candidates - you can smell the hypocricy from a mile away.

Looks like I wasted my contribution to Mahoney, but that's OK.

The depressing thing is that nothing these guys do effects the support they get from the rabid masses.

No kidding. They will never get over Clinton's blow job, but will say nothing about this pedophile.

Timely comment II...

Somehow consentual sex between adults gets compared to this sick idiot's pedophhilia.

I don't even think these Fox news idiots know how screwed up they are.

Sure, Foley isn't so bad because after all, Democrats sometimes do the wrong thing too.

That kind of argument is what you get from a small child, or sometimes a big child with a small brain.
