Newsweek Error: Says Foley Voted Against DOMA

Do Evan Thomas and Michael Isikoff know how to fact-check? They mistakenly claim Mark Foley voted against the Defense of Marriage Act in this week's edition of Newsweek:

Radical gay groups sometimes "out" closeted right-wingers, but Foley was insulated against charges of hypocrisy because he voted against a congressional ban on gay marriage.


Foley was never insulated against claims of closeted hypocrisy, at least not by Mike Rogers of Blogactive.com!

If it's not too much trouble, Thomas and Isikoff might learn how to use Google to find Foley's vote for a federal ban against gay and lesbian marriages.

Heck, I'll make it easy for them and link to the Vote-Smart.org page on Foley's vote in favor of DOMA.
