Another Republican Congressman resigns

Another? Where have I been?

Florida Republican Rep. Mark Foley resigned from the U.S. Congress on Friday after reports that he sent sexually inappropriate e-mails to underage congressional male interns were revealed.

I like to think that the people we vote into office to run the United States have more sense than this. I'm obviously wrong. Guys, paper trail.

Foley, a six-term state representative and chairman of the House caucus on missing and exploited children, said he would resign immediately after ABC News reported he sent messages to current and former congressional pages with repeated references to sexual organs and acts.

So the chairman of the House caucus on missing and exploited children sent sexually explicit e-mails to, well, children. Wonderful. I love this country. With each passing day, if you listen really carefully, you can actually hear the people here getting crazier.
