What's interesting about this story, and not just that it involves a six-term Republican congressman resigning over some correspondence he had with a teenage boy, is the level of this congressman's writing ability.Until the e-mails became public, U.S. Rep. Mark Foley had been considered a shoo-in for re-election. (In December 2003, Foley rated 84% by the Christian Coalition for his "pro-family" voting record.)
Here's a sample of the electronic correspondence he wrote to the boy, according to the AP story:
"he's such a nice guy ... acts much older than his age...and hes in really great shape...i am just finished riding my bike on a 25 mile journey now heading to the gym...whats school like for you this year?Y-I-K-E-S.
Could somebody buy this guy E.B. White's The Elements of Style.

Here's some more information about what the Republican in my last post wanted to do in his log cabin.
Once again a closeted two-faced Republican gets caught with his cock in the cookie jar.
