Where's The Religious Right On Rep. Foley?

The religious right loves to cast itself as the protector of family, children, and morality. But in the face of the Rep. Foley scandal, the religious right has chosen to attack gays, the "Left," and supporters of "tolerance and diversity," instead of Congressional leaders who had been warned about Foley's harassment of pages for years and chose to put their political interests above the interests of children.

See for yourself where the religious right believes the blame really lies......and when you're done, be sure to send this message to your friends.

Blame Tolerance and Diversity! "It's outrageous, it's shocking. But it shouldn't be totally surprising when we hold up tolerance and diversity as the guidepost for public life this is what you end up getting."-- Tony Perkins, President, Family Research Council

Blame the Homosexuals!"But neither party seems likely to address the real issue, which is the link between homosexuality and child sexual abuse." -- Tony Perkins, President, Family Research Council

Blame the Left!The Foley revelations are "an attempt to discourage Christian conservative voters and to get some percentage of them to stay home so that the Left can retake the United States Senate and the United States House."-- Gary Bauer, Chairman, Campaign for Working Families

Blame....Planned Parenthood? "There is never an acceptable excuse or rationale for the type of deviant behavior former Congressman Mark Foley has admitted to. Homosexuality is every bit a part of the culture of death as is abortion and contraception. Not surprisingly, Foley was an ardent supporter of both, representing the interests of Planned Parenthood 64 percent of the time thus far in 2006."-- Human Life International

Outraged? I am. Be sure to tell your friends where the religious right stands on the Foley debacle.
