>>I think Foley needs to go to prison for the rest of his life. I would put him in a community cell so other prisoners could have their way with him. I would also throw that mess of homosexual pedophile priests in there with him. Just make it one big homosexual family........ a rump ranger's paradise. Another good idea would be to send him to Iran.... we all remember the spear video.....<< Jim - "Judge not, lest ye be judged." Matthew 7:1 - Allen

"The part that causes the greatest fallout is the obvious kind of pall that an incident like this would put on our hardest-core voters, who are evangelical Christians," he said.
