Representative Foley Resigns
Congressman Mark Foley (R–FL) resigned Friday after it was revealed that he exchanged sexually charged Internet chat messages with a teenage boy. What do you think?
Jeremy Shapiro,
EMT
"Why all the fuss? Mark Foley is nothing but a hopeless romantic with a dream to keep chivalry alive. Congress has lost a great gentleman today."
Vicky O'Malley,
Software Tester
"I can't believe an upstanding citizen like Foley would do such a thing. He must have thought he was talking to a teenage girl."
Bobby Fields,
Lifeguard
"It was a little disconcerting for Foley to issue his resignation via a Fall Out Boy chat room."
