Mark Foley is still a douche!

Remember former Florida Repugnant Congressman Mark Foley? He was the one who stepped down when his lewd text messages to male teenage Capitol Hill pages became public in 2006. No criminal charges were ever filed against him and in all honesty, these dudes were seventeen and I really don't give a shit. What makes it terrible for Foley is that he was a big proponent for stronger punishments against sex offenders, many of whom are grown men who also engaged in nothing more than raunchy conversations with teenagers over the internet and text messages. Foley defends himself in a recent interview:

"The work I was doing was involving young children ... You know, you hear the term 'pedophile.' That is prepubescent," Foley said, noting a "huge difference" from lurid chats with teens on the brink of adulthood.

Tell that to the guys who are routinely imprisoned every time Polk County pulls "To Catch a Predator" type of stunts because their police are too afraid to take down the meth labs and violent teenage girls that run rampant in that shithole. Anyway, Foley goes on to apologize to his constituents then blames his problems on a priest who molested him when he was twelve. Now, I certainly believe that could fuck him up, but why should he escape any sort of prosecution in a state that loves labeling people sex offenders and ruining their lives forever? Oh, and how do you think that queen voted on amendment 2?
