First it was Mel Gibson saying that it was the alcohol's fault he went on an anti-semitic rant, now this pedophile Representative Feeley is saying his real problem is alcoholism.

In a letter faxed by Foley to WPBF-TV in West Palm Beach, the former congressman talked about why he entered an alcohol treatment facility.

"Painfully, the events that led to my resignation have crystallized recognition of my longstanding significant alcohol and emotional difficulties," Foley wrote. "I strongly believe that I am an alcoholic and have accepted the need for immediate treatment for alcoholism and related behavioral problems."

Foley said he deeply regrets and accepts "full responsibility for the harm that I have caused."

Sorry pal, alcohol is not what is making you a pedophile, or anti-semitic or whatever. The alcohol may help uncover these behaviors as a disinhibitor, but it is not causing you to message teenage boys about their penis size.

Seriously, I'm tired of people attacking alcohol for their personal flaws. We will not have alcohol scapegoated!
