A can of worms has been opened and it will overflow.

Homosexuality - Choice or just happened to be born that way (however anyone wants to phrase it)?

I believe it is a choice.

Then Madman, please answer the question...

But I want to ask those readers that do think it's a choice, or controllable, why would Mark Foley have chosen to be gay, given these circumstances.

Do you mean the "can of worms" was opened because now Republicans might, unthinkably, be gay? This reminds me of the Cheney's daughter incident. Remember: those that suggested his policies might be hypocritical were made out to be the bad guys, for "attacking" his family...

You are such a madman, madman.

I'll believe it's a choice when you convince me that you made the choice to be heterosexual. You were probably 10 years old, and were imagining kissing your best friend, Brian, and then kissing a girl in your class, Gwen. When exactly did you choose to pursue Gwen, and not Brian?
