    Foley claims he was molested by priest as a teenager

    http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/10/03/D8KHE4PG0.html

    This story gets more and more bizarre.

    Former Rep. Mark Foley's attorney said Tuesday that his client was molested between the ages 13 and 15 by a clergyman.

    Foley had represented the West Palm Beach district for 12 years and was seeking re-election until his sudden resignation last week after the disclosure of lurid online communications with teenage congressional pages.

    "This is part of his recovery," Roth said, declining to identify the clergyman or the church.

    Roth also announced for the first time that Foley is gay.

    He insisted Foley never had sexual contact with a minor.

    I'm sure there are tons of people who can make the same claim having never hit on a child using the internet.

    This calls for a slow building clap.

    Does this, like his alcoholism, make scouring the web for underage teens any less wrong? I read the transcripts, and whether or not he ever had sexual contact with a minor, he made sexual advances towards a minor. Still a scumbag in my book.
    Spoiler:

    Awesome.

    Oh, well then.

    He's completely off the hook. All is forgiven! Our bad!

    Except...no. Not quite. Stop trying to minimize or explain away your actions. Admit your grievous errors in judgment and seek help. But Representative Creepy is NOT the victim here.

    Take responsibility. Seek help. Never do it again. But don't try to play the victim to minimize your egregious conduct. Jeez.

    And also, if you have ANY honor in your body, kill yourself.

    So... does anybody think this story is completely fabricated to deflect blame?

    Put it this way, now I think I could shoot a Republican some day, and then claim that I was shot by a Republican as a child.
