Another Republican display of their peculiar "Family Values"
And another Republican has resigned from his office in disgrace. This time it appears to be over a Congressional page boy. The details look bad and it would seem that the man in the know saw them as indefensible.
Another Republican Value Victory.
Rep. Mark Foley, R-Fla., resigned from Congress on Friday, effective immediately, in the wake of questions about e-mails he wrote a former teenage male page.When you quit in the face of an easy win, how can others not think the worst. Even more so when the Moop in question touts his record of protecting kids from perverts.
''I am deeply sorry and I apologize for letting down my family and the people of Florida I have had the privilege to represent,'' he said in a statement issued by his office.
The two-sentence statement did not refer to the e-mails and gave no reason for Foley's abrupt decision to abandon a flourishing career in Congress.
Foley, 52, had been a shoo-in for a new term until the e-mail correspondence surfaced in recent days.
Another Republican Value Victory.
