Lawyer David Roth told reporters in Florida that Foley was intoxicated when he sent lewd electronic messages to former House pages but was always sober when conducting official business during his 12 years in Congress. Roth said he could not explain new reports of an exchange in which Foley appeared to be having Internet sex with a youth while participating in a House roll-call vote.
Blind terror? Plain stupidity? The least imaginative lying-filth lawyer in Washington?
All of the above?
Seldom does a story come out so devoid of the credible yet so churning of the stomach—what the hell am I saying, anyone who plays that fast and loose with his Congressional responsibilities fairly begs to be dismissed. Getting off on the internet while a vote is being taken. What a statesman. What a guy.
