Mark Foley: Republican Rehabilitation
Wednesday Apr 12, 2023
Wednesday Apr 12, 2023
Ah Spring is in the air and so our thoughts turn to rebirth. When what has rotted to the core and decomposed to earthworm food becomes the rich fertile ground from which new life may spring!
The miracle of rebirth is all around us! Look at the trees, the bees, the flowers, and Mark Foley! He's now a power player in Florida politics! Don't say Gay bills are simply the GOP protecting parents' rights.
Mark wasn't always so concerned about parental rights. In 2006 former Congressman Foley, representative of the Palm Beach County district of Florida (the very big fat seat of Mar-a-Largo!), got a little tipsy and sent some sexy text messages to some of the boys that used to work in Congress as pages. The boys were of age of consent, but too young to vote (16 isn't voting age). Mark never asked them what their parents might think of his sexy texts, he just wanted to know what they were wearing.
Mark resigned after being caught red-handed (you're welcome) so things calmed down quickly and nothing legal happened so it was all a non-issue and it all ended happily.
Happily that is until we decided to revisit a certain apology issued in 2006.
