Shamed Former Congressman Mark Foley Emerges From Shadows:

Called the "Beau of the Ball," former Congressman Mark Foley has re-emerged in Palm Beach society at a charity gala, his transgressions with former teenage pages and sexually explicit messages apparently forgotten and forgiven.

"Believe me. People were thrilled to see him," said socialite Dorothy Sullivan, who co-chaired the Palm Beach Fashion Week charity gala last month at the famed Mar-a-Lago Club, where Foley was photographed surrounded by women. "He was glad he came," she told ABC News.com.

The 'Beau of the Ball?' Vomit. Someone is trying to save this man's public image (or what's left of it) and it seems like they're doing a bang-up job. Let's not forget why this man retreated to the shadows in the first place. Not yet, Mr. Foley, not quite yet. However, if you're interested in coming clean with voters in Florida anytime soon, you know where to find me. Your move...

What The Hell Is Going On At Wal-Mart Corporate Meetings?:



ABC News has obtained some bizarre footage of Wal-Mart corporate meetings. Employees dress up in drag and do all sorts of other strange activities. I thought they were courting Conservatives?

How ABC News Landed The Exclusive With General Patraeus:

The television networks have spent the last few weeks in pursuit of an interview with Gen. David H. Petraeus, the United States commander in Iraq, ahead of his testimony to Congress this week on progress in Iraq. So how did ABC land the exclusive story?

It could have been the same way the network got into North Korea and Cuba: the personal touch of David Westin, the president of ABC News.

For three days in late February, Mr. Westin visited the network’s Baghdad bureau. There, in a meeting with General Petraeus, Mr. Westin made an informal pitch for the interview.

First of all, look how big that computer is! That is a computer in the photo above, right? Secondly, I think it's laudable that the President of ABC News is not only chasing down stories and exclusives but he's visiting active war zones to do it. Cheers to you Mr. Westin.
