Are we talking about the "overly friendly" emails, or the graphic text messages?
So are the Dims now going after ALL gay repesentatives?
this will be interesting...they are pro gay, unless it is more political to be anti gay...hmmm, very interesting for both parties.
Unless, of course, they are all "gay" and this is just a lovers' spat of the sort homosexuals are known for ~ particularly with two older queens fighting over "young stuff".
You know people write stage plays about this stuff and draw audiences to put down good money to watch it.
Only it's not fiction.
"Former page" again. Probably an adult at the time and, again, nothing actionable.
This is getting very tiresome.
And if a creepy gay guy is sending you creepy messages, why would your first step be to the other gay Republican Congressman?
WHICH messages -- that's the key.
The original e-mail messages were NOT sexual. One might wonder why he is even bothering sending an e-mail to a page, but there was nothing of sexual nature in them in the least.
Sounds like he is confessing to acting in a criminal manner.
source with direct knowledge of Kolbe's involvement said the messages shared with Kolbe were sexually explicit, and he read the contents to The Washington Post under condition that they are not reprinted. But Cline denied the source's characterization, saying only that the messages had made the former page feel uncomfortable. Nevertheless, she said, "corrective action" was taken. Cline said she still has not yet determined whether that action went beyond Kolbe's confrontation with Foley.

Who to believe, were they sexual in content or were they not.
Rep. Kolbe saw Foley messages in 2000 ping!
I only clicked on this post to say ..... WHO GIVES A FLYING RIP, EXCEPT ANAL RETENTIVE DEM-LIB-WEENIES OBSESSED with homo sex,
In other words, why does anyone continue promoting this story (on FR) with meaningless postings.
I guess this means that the Dem-losers can keep this Foley nonsense on the front page until Election Day simply by coming up with 30 former Pages, ONE FOR EACH DAY UNTIL NOV.7, all of whom mysteriously had "inappropriate emails, conversations, or IM's with Foley" at some time during the past 20 years.
Yeah Kolbe just chatted with Foley. One Rump Ranger to another; comparing notes.
Investigating "the congressional closet"
In September 1996 The Advocate ran a story titled "On the record," which has been repeatedly cited as the deliberate outing of congressmen Jim Kolbe (pictured) and Mark Foley. Decide for yourself. Here's the original text of that now infamous investigation.

On the record
Heated debate over House approval of the antigay Defense of Marriage Act shines a wary spotlight on the congressional closet.
They spoke to their colleagues—and the nation—from experience. They argued that by passing a bill that defines marriage strictly as a union between a man and a woman, the House was trampling on the civil rights of gays and lesbians. They were talking about their own rights as gay men. And everybody knew it.

Although he already "resigned" from the House, Kolbe still needs to "resign" from something else. At least "apologize" to the DemocRATS.
It seems that all of these pages, (with the possible exception of the one that started this whole mess) were actively involved in some sort of "relationship" with Foley.
Since it was well-known that Foley is gay, then what did they expect?
Foley was known to be sexually interested in young boys for SIX years and nothing was done. Pathetic.
" But Cline denied the source's characterization, saying only that the messages had made the former page feel uncomfortable. "
The non story has now completely jumped the bathhouse.
Mad Man with nukes or former pages feeling " uncomfortable." Hmmm...
Hi - How are you ?
I saw you wearing corduroy pants- a word of caution-they make you look fat. Best Wishes Mark Foley.
I saw BIGFOOT in 2001....................
ROTFLMAO!
Okay, this stinks, but this is just really over kill and you have to know this. My Gosh, no one cared this much when Barney Frank had a prostitution ring in his home. This is politically driven publicity, and there are many more important issues now, like N. Korea. Foley is gone, and the democrats are hypocrites as usual.
Just imagine what would have happened if they had made Foley resign then. "Homophobic" would then be the libs cry. And besides, skanky emails are not illegal.
I heard some callers on Drudge tonight. "I would NEVER vote democratic. They think this would change my vote??? Hahaha, THEY are the party with absolutely NO morals." it was great.
This story is so four hours ago...
