Blame Canada!

[Patsy Stone]

Nah, they're not that desperate yet. Are they?? Maybe...


1) It's the Democrats fault for leaking it and politicizing it.

Okay, I'll take the blame for outing a felonious predator. And, while we're at it, GOP, why didn't you?


2) It's the gays' fault. Everyone knows that most of the sexual predators in the US are gay.

Oh, they're not? What's that you say? They're heterosexual? Well, I'm sure that's just bad statistics.


3) It's alcohol's fault. You know how that Ol' Devil Water can affect a member of the House.

What? He carried on while he was at work? While waiting for a vote? Hmm. So, are you drunk all the time? Or just at work?


4) It's the media's fault. Such loudmouths.

You mean, other networks including FOX tried to keep it covered up but someone finally let it out? Oh, sorry. Better luck controlling all of the media in your next lifetime.


5) It's the Catholic Church's fault.

It's clear that the Catholic Church turned a poor, innocent Mark Foley gay and made him want 16-year-old boys. I say take away their tax-free privileges.


6) It's the kids' fault.

I mean, come on... I was clear that they wanted for it.

8) It's not my fault: I forgot that I knew.

Really, Mr. Hastert, what else have you forgotten?

7) It's Clinton's fault. Just because.





And there we have the spin until today. Anything there make this all okay for you parents out there? You decent citizens? No? Me neither.

1. That's a pretty good summary of the GOP talking points.

So far anyway. I'm sure they'll come up with a few others given time but you have to admit, on such short notice they've done yeoman's work deflecting responsibility from Foley onto everyone else in the Universe. :eyes: The party of personal responsibility. The Renamblacans. :rofl:

5. Thanks.

One tries -- but it is difficult keeping up with it. I'm nearly dizzy.

2. IT'S THE IRANIANS FAULT! That's what they'll use to justify the

impending war.
