Your Honor we can't try Tom Foley for anything.

First off, he is a Congressman. He deserves special treatment.

Second, he's admitted he's Gay. We all know all Gay men are pedophiles, so he really isn't responsible for his actions. No one has a choice, if god decides they are going to be Gay, they're born gay, and a pedophile.

Third, he's an alcoholic. He wasn't in control of his behavior.

Fourth, this young man & his parents were asking for it. Who in this day and age would let their child waste their time working as a Congressional page? He should have been out being an normal boy, playing football, throwing rocks at cars, etc..

The real enemy's hear are God for making Homosexual deviants, the Liquor companies for foisting their awful products on a population that can't handle drinking, and the parents for allowing their son to be in such a pathetic position.

So let my client go, and let's get God & the Liquor companies up on the stand. While we're at it let's blame the parents.

I rest my case.
