Will Ex-Congressman Mark Foley Not Face Charges?

Perhaps this should be an episode of “To Release a Predator”.

In fact, in this Friday Drawing for a Reader, again requested by Smashedfrog (which it appears Florida is now in competition for political lewdness with Idaho this week) I had a million ideas and I wasn’t sure which direction to go. I eventually settled on a drawing inspired by John Mark Karr’s trip back to the states. This was the trip where John enjoyed champagne and first class treatment. However, unlike the John Mark Karr story, which was “I did it” and the media believed him, despite no evidence, Mark Foley’s story goes something like, “All evidence pointed to me being guilty of something, but a jury wouldn’t believe it.”

And just a reminder, if you think a Friday drawing should be featured about a local story in your part of the US America (yes, I watched the YouTube video), send me an email at drawmesomething@pixelmarx.com.

Do Lewd Republicans Make The Usual Suspects?

Remember the 1995 Kevin Spacey movie, The Usual Suspects? It’s a great movie, and with news recent released that the Republican Party may be working on a sequel, I couldn’t pass up the chance to draw the next cover art.

For those not familiar with who’s in this cartoon, here’s a quick run down on the line up.

(From left to right.)

1. Ted Haggard

2. Bob Allen

3. Larry Craig

4. David Vitter

5. Mark Foley

Read what you can on these guys (at your own risk and perhaps with a barf bag close by), not because of what they did (Foley being the exception) but because they preached so vehemently against what they did.
