Say What? Disgraced Republican Mark Foley Gets His Own Talk Radio Show

Yes. Really. Disgraced Republican, and former Florida Rep. Mark Foley has his own radio talk show! I thought this was a parody at first, but according to ABC, it's true and the name of his show will floor you -- "Inside The Mind of Mark Foley"
Nearly three years after then-Congressman Mark Foley, R-FLA, saw his political career crumble following the revelation of his sexually explicit emails with underage congressional pages, he's garnering the spotlight once again: as a radio talk show host.
Foley, who resigned after ABC News' The Blotter broke the story before going to rehab in Arizona, is set to debut his radio show entitled "Inside the Mind of Mark Foley" on Sept. 22 on West Palm Beach radio station WSVU 960am.
When the page scandal broke, Foley was the chairman of the House Caucus on Missing and Exploited Children. He resigned hours after ABC News questioned him about the instant messages with former congressional pages, some of whom were under the age of 18 at the time of the exchanges. Officials in Florida announced a year ago that Foley would not face criminal charges because of "insufficient evidence." Read on...
Yikes! I'm not sure many people really want to know what's going on "inside the mind of Mark Foley." Once you get past the fantasies of sipping chocolatinis with young boys in their underwear, it's a good bet that all that's left in Foley's mind that could possibly be worked into a radio show are the same old, worn out right wing talking points. Because we need another right wing talk show.


Trying to molest little boys will get you two things in life, a career as a Catholic priest, or your own radio show.
Unbelievable.
maybe these bible thumpin hypocrites will get all raptured up and let us live our lives in peace.
I sure as hell hope so!
..ever be "raptured up"? Surely he is going straight to hell!

as I do of winning the lottery, scoring a date with Anna Marie Cox, and becoming a famous low budget zombie movie mogul.
No heaven, no hell, no gods no devils.
Just people makin shit up.
I wouldn't go in his mind even if I were wearing a hazmat suit. I read about this in the Palm Beach Post and wondered who the hell cares what he thinks about anything.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
This is just really, really creepy. I saw some sickness last night...that Garrido guy who kidnapped that young girl apparently recorded songs about her. I can just imagine Foley talking about his exploits with the young congressional pages. Creepy as hell.
...will be devoted to addressing America's high schoolers.
And all of the republican asswipes will highly recommend that parents let their kids listen to him because he is a prime example of what redemption and forgivness can do for you.
..in Florida tell us they don't want Obama speaking to their kids. Now this? Golly gee-willigers, they are a pathetic bunch of ignorant hypocrits aren't they?
Mickey: "It was an epiphany. Do you know what an epipany is?"
Keoni: "NOT NOW MICKEY!"
Yep, a county north of me didn't show the president's speech until today after they had a chance to review it. I wonder if they will be as careful about this guys thoughts.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
girls or boys?
The importance of text books and the value of bent-over pages.
Good one! You da woofman!
Alan Grayson for President, Elizabeth Warren for Vice President, and Paul Krugman for Secretary of the Treasury!
more like foley's first show will be devoted to UNdressing high schoolers.
ZING!
I wonder who owns the radio station that will broadcast this outrage? The first one to mention "innocent until proven guilty" goes immediately to hell.
Was the Faux Noise felony lineup full?

..they'll put it on TV.
Wow, I can't wait! bwaha-hahahaha!

"WSVU's general manager Chet Tart says, 'During these incredibly changing times, it's important that we hear the voice of a true Washington D.C. insider.' " How true.
you fail up. It is becoming commonplace since Dubya showed them how its done.

In the interview in the PB Post he mentioned something about all pols being all about egos. I guess egos trump shame.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
Right-wingers need to be called out as the bigots they are. They can no longer pretend that they only ever forgive their own and pillory liberals because every single instance happens to have mitigating circumstances that excuse the hypocrisy.
They aren't hypocrites; they're BIGOTS.
If one of their own misbehaves, they *always* forgive them and welcome them back into the fold. If one of "them" misbehaves or even can be accused of misbehavior, they ALWAYS cast it in the worst possible light and wave it around for the next 50 years.
They deserve nothing but scorn and contempt. They are the rot at the base of the tree of liberty, for they want nothing so much as to tear the blindfold from Lady Justice's face and replace it with a "SUPPORT OUR TROOPS" ribbon magnet.
..be allowed near a mic, much less get his own show.
The person who thought that was a good idea should be fired on the spot.
They did the "D-Fl" thing again. Look, shouldn't the DNC just sue them for libel already?
but I noticed it too
.
statusquObama, change you can only pretend in
It is not illegal for them to lie.
Fox News and Monsano, here
What would the DNC sue them about?
statusquObama, change you can only pretend in
much. "We'll tell you what the news is?"
Is that why all the milk here now has stickers that say, "No artificial growth hormone added"?
Notice it doesn't say, "No growth hormone added".
Hhmmm.

His first guest should be John Walsh.
..Larry Craig?

Look at the screen shot. How is it that Fox so routinely mislabels miscreant congressmen?
Mark Foley (D-FL) ?
Policy. Has to be.
..we've figured it out already. Get caught with your pants down and you instantly become a "D" on faux. What better way to take a swipe at the other side than by throwing your pals under the bus!
Mickey: "It was an epiphany. Do you know what an epipany is?"
Keoni: "NOT NOW MICKEY!"
WE'VE figured it out. The stupid fucks that watch FOX do not have the intellectual curiosty or knowledge of current events to figure it out. That's why it works.
... easily the best social services program in the land.
Corruption favors the wealthy.
What's with the "D" behind Foley's name on the FOX News screen? They sure like to pull this crap!
Just some intern who makes a simple typo . . .
Yeah sure.

. . . 'Inside the Closet of Mark Foley'?
Or has he undergone one of those nutty Christian 'gay cures'?
Every frothingly insane Christian loon should hav etheir own show, how better to keep constantly exposing what Christianity does to people than by listening to the damage from their own frothingly insane yaps?
..will have to devote so much time to covering the lies they spew, reality based debate and real world problems will suffer.

i want a talk show too
Go get yourself elected as a Republican, cruise and have sex with underage males, then resign 'n repent.
Then, maybe, the nice folks at talk radio central will hire you.
It's fitting that the station's call letters could stand for W Special Victims Unit.
So Ice-T will be visiting Florida?

Well, I mean why not? Rush has a history with the legal system and he has his own show down here. So I guess Mark can have one too. Can't have too many crooks and liars on the radio these days can we?
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
If I remember correctly, Mark doesn't exactly have the voice for radio. Since he hasn't been an "insider" for several years, what could he know that we don't? Okay, other than how to court little boys.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
of God and family values and do not lie. So, lets stick a D after his name.
I wonder if he'll keep being referred to a a Dem on his new show?
Actually, that would be kind of funny. It sure would confuse the hell out of the brain dead zombies who tune in to the show.
I love this site, really I do, but I gotta ask, why would CNL post the image of Mark Foley on FAUX with the D next to his name? I mean isn't this the type of shit we progressives and liberals should be against. IMO this is just helping them by "repeating" their tactics. Surely there are MANY photos that CNL could have used, why then would they choose to use THIS picture? Counter productive folks, counter productive.
I think the photo is just a reminder of what Fox is infamous for doing when one of their own shows his ass in public. Anyone who doesn't know that he is actually a republican probably doesn't know why it is bizarre for him to have a radio show.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
That photo and its fraudulent caption ought to be reproduced as often as possible. To ignore or hide it is to be complicit in the lie.
I agree with you guys that FAUX should be held accountable for their bullshit.
And I'm NOT saying ignore it or hide it or to be complicit in the lie. What I DO think is there are probably better ways to take them head to head than to repost their propaganda to possibly do MORE damage to the ignorant, uneducated and misinformed.
Seems like there is enough that FAUX is guilty of that re-posting the image does more harm to OUR cause by re-posting and is giving them just one more outlet for ignorant people to see that false FAUX caption and actually think Foley is a D and not a R.
I don't know, I could be way off base. But I do agree that FAUX should be held accountable and when they do stuff like this we should throw a shit storm back their way, I just don't think this particular photo/caption is having the effect that maybe we as liberals/progressives would want to have.
That being said, thanks to the CNL crew, great site. And to EVERYONE here for the great debates and discussions, it's a breath of fresh air. So thanks again everyone and keep it up!
West Palm Beach radio station WSVU is perverted.
A real class act.
WSVU Radio is sexually devient, exploitive, and narsisistic. Way to go WSVU, not.

Hey, could be a gold mine.
HA!
I think it cost $40 million plus.
elevators? They do seem a bit sleazy, don't they?
The Republican party is the party of dumbasses! Just look at the ignorant throngs who show up at townhalls! And if this country has such great schools, why are so many of the elderly as stupid as they are? How the hell do you not know that Medicare and Medicaid are government programs? Most of them are the same idiots who voted for McGeezer and are just stunned that he lost to that black guy! As a black gal, I can't tell you how much that means to me. The only thing missing from all of them are their sheets! Suck hard on that 2008 ass kicking you got GOP! And if healthcare passes with a strong public opttion, you clowns are dead forever! Yeah!
Foley like the rest of the Viagra members of his former party should just go away. I suspect that Foley got real interested in the back end after hanging out on South Beach and looking at all those tight glutes cruising down the beach. PERVERT!
but got canned cause he couldn't keep it up.
Oh FOX. You've done it again.....they have identified Foley as a D from Fl in the picture posted.
Get into the mind of Mark Foley? To quote Archie Bunker, if I had a mind like Foley's, I'd take it out and have it shot.
When is it time to go to bed at Mark Foley's house?
When the big hand meets the little hand.
"No, really son, it's a microphone. Just get a little closer..."
Tee Hee....
and exploited children that caused Foley such concern; has anybody checked his basement?
Hasa Diga Eebowai
Faux must be so embarrassed by their own Reslug bathroom stalkers, Boy (page) molesters, cheaters and sexual predators, that they switched Foley to a (D) instead of the sick party he actually belongs to.
Your image of Foley shows one of FOX's ongoing "mistakes", where they say scandal-plagued republicans are Democrats. Please use another image or crop that part out. You don't need to be as bad as they are when this story has nothing to do with FOX.
................because it is FUX Nooze he is democratic, not PUKIE as in real life. I've been saying that Rahmie's only purpose is/has been to turn the real Democratic Party into PUKIE LITE, so..............
Mark Foley is a Republican and not a homosexual.
One f*cks men, the other f*cks men over.
He is just another chickenshit of a man looking for some Repuke fame.
... maybe they could use the opening credits from Tales of the Crypt so we can visualize what it's like to go into Mark Foley's mind.
turned a new page in his life...
I guess he will be the next Dr Ruth
He can advise young boys on how to touch themselves. - the people on the right have vertually no morals and no values so it doesn't really surprise me to see Foley getting his own talkshow.
your party when you get caught with your pants down. Hence changing a R to a D. Its a new party called the deviant party, which also has a D much like the Democratic party.
we will have right wing radio commentators that will make Savage and Hannity look like choir boys.
thats odd. David Dreier enjoys those as well.
I wonder what else Mr Dreier and Mark have in common....
that was put on by the Republican party here in West Palm Beach at the request of Alycee Hastings and the AFL-CIO and Mark Foley was there.
He was introduced by the host Sid Dinnerstein and warmly received.
The meeting was a whole lot of crazy after that.

*********************************************
To Whom It May Concern:
I am a native Floridian although I reside in Texas these days.
I'm writing to express my disgust and disappointment with the news that Seaview AM960, which is licensed to North Palm Beach, is permitting the radio show "Inside the Mind of Mark Foley."
Mr. Foley resigned from the United States Congress for innapropriate contact with minor pages, at the same time he was chairman of the House Caucus on Missing and Exploited Children.
Mr. Foley's text messages and emails to minor children working in the US Capital included:
- "Did you spank it this weekend yourself?" and "Where did you unload it."
- "I am hard as a rock...so tell me when yours reaches rock"
- "Get a ruler and measure it for me."
It's sickening to retype. Why would you give a public voice to this man?
Do the residents of North Palm Beach truly want to know what is "inside the mind of Mark Foley?" Haven't all Americans suffered enough from his manipulation of children and misuse of power?
Mr. Foley was a career hipocrit and liar. In 2002, he told National Public Radio:
- "I think what we've done here is allowed people to get away, if you will, whether it's virtual reality or live children, exploiting them for sexual gratification."
- "What I consider pornographic is when you're allowed to interact with a person who has a less than desirable intent [on the Internet.]"
- "I look at this more from a child-endangerment aspect. It's not necessarily that we have committed the crime already and can find reasonable cause to prosecute. My concern is it's luring people into the likelihood that they become victims themselves. I think that's a misuse of youth and I think it's a way to soil their future..."
What will the station do when the topic of peadophilia arises? Allow Mr. Foley to lie and manipulate the public once more...or simply ask him not to show up for work that day?
How will the station respond if a minor child calls into the show with a comment or quesiton? Some parents were up in arms over the President giving a speech on education. Will these same parents want their children listening to this predator?
I'm very dissapointed. "Inside the Mind of Mark Foley" was a bad idea and should never air.
Shame on whomever gave this man a public voice in North Palm Beach.
Maybe he thinks its time to turn the page? Who do you suppose will be his target audience?
Why is it all these rightwing fallen heroes and great Americans, I would guess, all end up on the bat-crazy rightwing talk shows? Fine example is Oliver North has a talk show, good lord, this is their best and brightest, crooks, liars and alleged pedophiles? That just leaves the Mr. Wilson show, how to turn the respected chamber of Congress into a yelling and screaming town hall.
