They don't have a new episode of the Daily Show on Friday night, so we all get on Yahoo Answers instead.

Florida Republican Rep. Mark Foley resigned from Congress on Friday in the wake of questions about e-mails he wrote a former male page, according to a congressional official. Foley apparently sent the e-mails in August 2005, when the male page was 16 years old. GOP sources say Foley is concerned there may be other potential politically damaging e-mails or information out there.

It's always big news when a wolf in sheeps clothing is exposed.
""ABC News reported Friday that Foley also engaged in a series of sexually explicit instant messages with current and former teenage male pages. In one message, ABC said, Foley wrote to one page: "Do I make you a little horny?"
In another message, Foley wrote, "You in your boxers, too? ... Well, strip down and get naked."
Foley, as chairman of the Missing and Exploited Children's Caucus, had introduced legislation in July to protect children from exploitation by adults over the Internet. He also sponsored other legislation designed to protect minors from abuse and neglect.
"We track library books better than we do sexual predators," Foley has said.
Foley was a member of the Republican leadership, serving as a deputy whip. He also was a member of the House Ways and Means Committee.

As a Republican obsessed with sex, I am offended by your proposition.
But as a Democrat obsessed with love of my country, I think we should really be discussing more relevant matters than anyone's obsession with sex.

Republicans are the ones who keep bringing up gay marriage.
I imagine if a Republican saw a gay Middle Eastern immigrant, he'd sh*t his own pants in fear.

~Can't speak for everybody, but, in my case, it's because I just got laid by an elephant.
