Foley's Lawyer: He's Gay, He Was Molested, He Drinks
By Paul Kiel - October 3, 2006, 6:36 PM

Well, here's that "bombshell."

At a press conference moments ago, Foley's lawyer David Roth announced that the lawmaker "asked" that the media be told that he was molested by a clergyman when between the ages of 13 and 15. It's part of the healing process, apparently. Roth added that "Mark explicitly reaffirms his responsibility and remorse" for his actions.

Also, "Mark Foley wants you to know that he is a gay man."

What a pathetic defense.

"If there’s another 9/11 or a major war in the Middle-East involving a U.S. attack on Iran, I have no doubt that there will be, the day after or within days an equivalent of a Reichstag fire decree that will involve massive detentions in this country."

Fine. Three strikes, he's out. He confessed. Put a bullet in his head and move on to the next one.

Interestingly, Scarborough states he has known Foley for 12-13 years. Been to many social and political engagements with him and he has NEVER seen him with a drink.

They're lawters, you have to parse all this nonsense. That or ask Scarboroughy directly if he's ever seen Foley with an empty ether tank and a torn, bloody clown costume.

Roth looks remarkably like my next-door neighbor, but has a totally different demeanor. It's almost spooky how much they look alike though. It could be a cheesy disnee movie.

He obviously was not comfortable in his role. I can understand that, I would rather clean toilets in public restrooms on skid row then be that fallen Congressman's spokesman.

You can't find anyone in Washington who has ever seen Foley take a drink let alone be a drunk.

Foley will spend at least 30 days in a facility being treated for what Foley calls "alcoholism and related behavioral problems."

here is Colbert's take on this.. hilarious !

Colbert On FoleyGate

By: Jamie Holly @

10:00 AM - PDT

Colbert started his show last night with FoleyGate, and even took blame for what happened

Video - WMV Video - QT

Colbert: "People are calling for Denny Hastert to step down and that is unfair. He is a former high school wrestling coach and what would he know about the sexual harassment of young boys. All he knows is if you pull it you ice it"

Colbert goes on to explain how he explained all these abbreviations used on the internet to Foley, with such as examples as STUD = Strong Teen Using Democracy.

(H/T Mike L. for the video)

You mean, you didn't know that Dr. Smith's famous line he often said, "Oh the pain....the pain....." was a sarcastic mimicking of Will's outcry as Smith boffed him? I thought everyone knew that. ;-)

It's like the old adage "if you can't convince them facts, baffle them with bullshit."

Or outright lies, if they work. What an evil philosphy they abide.

Foley's rehab is nothing but cynical duck and cover. The guy was flying high until he got caught. Now, we'll get all the lame excuses about why he isn't really responsible.

Maybe Foley can make his mark in show business playing the movie version of this super hero saga. I mean, the Bush II era is strange now, but it can always get worse.
