In the letter faxed by Foley's attorney David Roth, to local media outlets in West Palm Beach, Florida Sunday night, Foley, R-Fla., says, "I strongly believe that I am an alcoholic and have accepted the need for immediate treatment for alcoholism and related behavioral problems." The offense is that he sent emails to pages asking if they were horny and asking for pictures???
Well, well, another Republican caught and hiding behind alchoholic rehab (ala Republicans Cunningham and Ney ).
The Foley case is repugnant, but it's equally bad that Republican leaders in the House of Representatives delayed protecting their pages by knowing there was a problem and ignored it possibly to preserve a congressional seat this election year, otherwise why would they sit on it rather than take action to protect their 16 year old pages.
