Very lucid summary. Message #12739 from Peter Dierks at 10/5/2006 12:52:06 AM If you find homosexuality to be just an alternative, then do you search for alternative metal objects to stick into electric sockets? Mankind was designed for a monogamous mate of the complementary sex. Interestingly, when concentrations of people practicing homosexuality rise, so does the incidence of deadly plagues striking down the practitioners who violate the natural order. Without being to ominous we can assume it is merely a normal response of nature to dangerous behaviors. The age of consent in DC is 16; the boys contacted by Foley appear to have all been over that age. I find Foley's phone sex with boys to be just as reprehensible as Clinton's use of girls. To his credit Foley never actually had sex with those boys. Prima Fascia evidence proved that Clinton's claim of the same was false. So in that way Foley is a better man than Clinton. He certainly displayed more honor by resigning than Clinton did by long term lying, obfuscation and obstructionism. The members of Foley's party displayed more honor than the members of Clinton's party did.

"Mankind was designed".... Well...if mankind was designed to be attracted to the opposite sex, then how come there have ALWAYS been gay people in the world??? I don't think I'd be attracted to men if I had been brought up by gays in a society of ONLY gays. Maybe you think that YOU might have "become" gay under those circumstances, but I don't feel that way. "Foley never had sex with those boys"...How the heck do YOU know? When Clinton left office he had a 65% approval rating, so apparently MOST of the country didn't feel all the disgust about the Lewinski thing that you do. When Bush leaves office, I have a feeling that his poll numbers will be SO LOW that it couldn't even hurt him in the polls if he had an orgy with a bunch of 16 year olds in the Oval Office on the night before he vacated.
