I was molested, and I drink...
Edited on Tue Oct-03-06 05:20 PM by KyndCulture
there's not enough pain or booze in the world that would cause me to hurt a child.....


goddammit, that really made me angry.

Which one of the 12 steps is blame it all on somebody else?

:nuke:

1. I thought the bastards were the party of personal responsibility?
I guess it only counts as long as its someone else's responsibility.

Glass houses, hypocrisy, irony.......

7. It is.
It's the party of the Democrats and everyone else taking personal responsibility for Rethuglican lapses. You just need to have a proper understanding of the semantics involved.

2. I guess you're qualified to become a republican member of congress
:grr:

This revelation doesn't 'excuse' him or the GOP leadership from what they have done.

Many...many...many..people have overcome past abuse and addiction to become productive - law abiding - members of society.

For instance YOU KyndCulture.

How DARE he try to rush through the recovery program/blame past abuse/blame addiction for his actions/have someone else do it for him.

:mad:

6. NO KIDDING!!!
Should we be sequestering all the 'gays' so we can be sure they don't attempt to molest our children? Just more proof that this sick fuck has no desire to get 'well' or 'recover' or be held accountable for his being a sexual predator. AND more crap for the GOP Leadership to throw when the Democrats and the American people try to hold them accountable for covering the coattails of a sexual predator.

Foley could have received help for his alcoholism in DC and remained in office. Every one knows that there are continual AA meetings around the House/Senate offices. Being an alcoholic is not an excuse for stalking and propositioning young pages (I don't care if they were male or female they were KIDS)!!!

And being molested as a teen is a tragic event I am sure - but STILL not an excuse for attempting to molest teens as an adult. :grr:
