Foley may have run out statute of limitations
Raw Story: [photoshop by The Aristocrats]
According to ABC, Florida laws may spare the congressman because of the state's three-year statute of limitations....
Who's to blame?
House Republican leadership, for one, who had knowledge of Foley's inappropriate behavior for years. The emails originally leaked out of the office of Rep. Rodney Alexander (R-LA), a Democrat-cum-Republican [Oh they didn't write that. Oh yes they did. -eds] who changed parties in 2004. But the untold story is that the media, too, had a hand in protecting Foley.
"It added up to this conclusion," [St. Petersburg Times Executive Editor] Brown added. "To print what we had seemed to be a shortcut to taint [Oh he didn't say that. Oh yes he did. -eds] a member of Congress without actually having the goods."
Statute of Limitations. What a fucking joke. Someone was high when they came up with this bullshit idea.
Thanks Mark! For destroying the Con stranglehold on the House and Senate! Great work!
Don't worry, I'm sure this queen is wrapped up in the Patrick McHenry hustlers and murder scandal.
Statute of limitations?!??!?!
So don't try him. Just give him the Jose Padilla treatment for a couple of years.
Oh, wait: Republicans still get due process.
Incredible these cons have bamboozled their voter bases for decades and longer isn't it?
"Family Values"
Sheesh
He's a real no where man, making all his no where plans for nobody.
Once known as a crusader against child abuse and exploitation, Foley resigned from Congress on September 29, 2006 after allegations surfaced that he had sent suggestive emails and sexually explicit instant messages[1] to teenaged boys who had formerly served and were at that time serving as Congressional pages.

The GOP is soft on pedophiles.

Time for a lecture about "family values" from childless shrew Laura Ingraham.

The media has covered up numerous offenses over the years. Starting with the Franklin Cover Up in my opinion.
Let's do the work the media won't. It's more fun and necessary than waiting for someone else too.

America needs a wash rag and some hard core cleaning. Our government is dirty as hell.
I take it that's a shot of Bush describing Gannon's 'uncut'?

Hard to believe we're back to this crap isn't it?
lmfao !!!
Thanks! That means my work here is done. Have a great night. -BG

I'm with David on this...the other loafer is about to drop.
I haven't heard enough about patty mchenry. Too bad the media hasn't covered that more. I'll have to research it on C&L. :)
FOX labelled him a Democrat on the TEEVEE.
Don't forget it!
Destroy FOX! They are criminals!

Oh please!
His name is Foley, for fuck's sake, not Clinton.
Know that when you look up Franklin Conspiracy..George the first was involved in it.The children were procured from Boys Town among other places. The prosecutor in the case died in a small plane crash with all the evidence which the FBI quickly swept up. They were right there at the crash site. John DeCamp who wrote the book was a republican senator who started investigating to prove the GOP was innocent. When he found evidence the GOP was into pedophillia...the CIA director ..Colby..I think.... told him to make it public in order to live. So, he wrote the book which still can be bought. Lots of people have died with evidence in this spectacular case. Newspapers ..police in Nebraska all helped in the cover up...in the heart land.

Please tell me you know something, oh by the by, how do you feel about Condy Rice sharing a house with a female filmmaker.
Huh-huh. They said taint.

Was the house in Pismo Beach?....Ya know theres good clam diggin there......
mudshark @ 25:
Very funny! I love Pismo Beach. I lost, uh, something there a long time ago...nevermind. Memories.
I thought the law that covered internet predators is a federal statute. Florida may not charge him, but what about the DOJ? Oh, I forgot, they don't have anybody working there.
Remember.. Someone let Jeff Gannon into the White House. Who was that?
so many repubs "on the downlow" so little time
Fingers Foley had alot of people protecting him while he molested kids. Yes the Christian Republican base, Media, GOP Senate/Congress and the White House. Now even the kids parents protected Fingers Foley from charges. Who will protect the kids. Gonzales looked the other way on all Republican sex offenders. Now we know what Christian Family Values mean in the Republican party. Yes Fingers Foley, Larry Craig and David Vitter are the examples of what these values and morals mean. I only wish the kids that Fingers Foley molested could have gotten help with the attack upon them. Money and politics played a major rule in protecting this pervert. What's scary is their are more of them in elected positions that we don't know of yet. Homeland Security is protecting the US from terrorism yet no one is protecting the children from perverts. Oh I forget perverts are also working in Homeland Security.

SELF INITIATED CAPTION CONTEST
Jeff Gannon? Oh, about this long and cut!
Actually,the St.Pete Times is a terrific newspaper and a breath of fresh air down here in Floriduh. They constantly are on the prowl for crooked pols,believe me. They 'cover up' NO ONE.
re: "Nobody knows I'm gay"
He ISN'T gay.
He's a pedophile.
There's a difference.
The religious right is wrong when it conflates homosexuality and pedophilia.
lactose intolerant @ 34:
Thank you....as a straight white male I am tired of people conflating the two although, in this case, I think he is both. However, one is an orientation and the other is a crime.
Shared Humanity @ 35:
Agreed, and methinks it's not just the R-Right. We could do without the "other loafer" comments, etc. It's just not cool.
I had the impression that Mark Foley's pedophilliac grooming and propositioning happened in Washington DC, where the United States' Congress is located, so where does Florida come in? Florida's very brief statutes of limitations are sorely in need of a revision, in any case.
lactose intolerant @ 34:
I've lived in Palm Beach County for 20years and you are wrong, my friend. HE is both. He lives with a man in Palm Beach and has been a society figure there for years.

That doesn't let him off the hook for DC, Maryland or Virginia.
L.A.Confidential@11
Great Photo, I wonder if shes gonna borrow the chimps "enhancement package". LOL What a viscious cow.
This won't stop their political party from falling faster than it already is falling. Give them a bit longer and we won't have to worry about the hypocritical Republicans anyway.

Foley, "Realy? How come you can only take it this far?
