Former Congressional Representative Mark Foley

Florida's congressional representative, republican Mark Foley stepped down from his position when questions rose about emails to young Congressional Pages. According to Orlando Sentinel "Foley, a six-term Republican who was co-chair of the Congressional Missing and Exploited Children's Caucus, resigned his seat Friday after ABC News questioned him about the sexually explicit instant messages he reportedly sent three years ago." The content of messages were deemed inappropriate behavior between a congressperson and young pages. The content were viewed as sexual in nature, Foley blames alcoholism and poor behavior problems.

The republicans moral barometer continue to fall with one scandal after the other by its filled with religion conservative political leaders. Leadership that follow their own voices while drowning out the voices of the public. And in doing so, does harm to young men and women as they move to bury the collateral damage. The republicans appears to sympathize with Foley. Suggesting that sexual orientation and the action were with legal adults in Washington, D.C. However, "U.S. Rep. Mark Foley helped push through the passage of the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act of 2006, which created a national sex-crimes registry and increased penalties for such crimes against children," according to the Miami Herald.
Florida law prohibits anyone from ''encouraging, offering or soliciting sexual conduct'' over the Internet with anyone under 18. Child predators face a minimum of five years in prison and a $5,000 fine, with steeper penalties for repeat offenders.

(3) any fondling or touching intended to arouse or satisfy the sexual desires of either the child or the older person;

commits child solicitation, a Class D felony. However, the offense is a Class C felony if it is committed by using a computer network.

The shame of elected officials going after little boys, can not be a staple of the Republican philosophy of family values. This shame rocks the very foundation of moral values expressed by Republican leadership to young emulating patriots. Not only have the boys not been protected in the church, now officials in government, who had been elected to write laws to protect them has created more uncertainty for innocence young boy's transition into manhood. Is there not a safe place for young males in America? Or this really a prank? According to BREITBART.Com approved nearly four dozen subpoenas. More on the scandal at Drudge Report and MyWay News.
