Mark Foley is a scumbag! Mark Foley is a scumbag! Mark Foley is a scumbag!
Now that that is out of the way I will reveal how I (and a few others) discovered Jordan Edmund was one of the former house pages that participated in sexually explicit instant messages with Rep. Mark Foley. Also I will explain to you why I believe it necessary to reveal Jordan Edmund's identity. You may not agree with my decision, but I hope to explain my reasoning by the end of this story.

Sorry - in re-reading one of the IMs , I see he said that he would be 18 in Feb. 2003.
The page may have been 18 at the time of the IMs.

I find this disgusting. This man was a minor when the IMs took place and outing him disgusts me. I never thought I would agree with DU.
Bloggers looking for "scoops" can get carried away, like they did this time.
HE's the one who RECORDED the IMs and is using them to 'anonymously' smear the Republicans.
Oops!
What's weirder is that this Jordan A Edmund character is currently working of Ernest Istook's (Republican) campaign for governor of Oklahoma.

The IM's are time-stamped APRIL 2003!
And you know that because some blog says it's so? Pretty impressive for a young man, over 18 or not, to orchestrate this all by his lonesome.
Let's blame the victim. I'm sure that no dem or pro-gay organizations were involved.
The former page is now 21 - a man -
He chose to come forward now... when he is a man.
If he came forward three years ago and someone in the Dem party held this info, I feel sorry for him. But nothing stopped him from filing a complaint with federal authorities.
He did not.
I do not defend what Foley did. I'm glad he did the right thing by resigning. But when I read those IMs, somehow I just can't help thinking - - - - who stopped them from just saying NO NO NO!!!!
Google cache of his myspace profile:
http://64.233.187.104/search?q=cache:xbpYVoZxqX4J:profile.myspace.com/index.cfm%3Ffuseaction%3Duser.viewprofile%26friendID%3D8641001+site:myspace.com+edmo+politics&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=1
Where is it reported that he came forward? He was outed by this blog.
Last log in on that site is 3/2006 where he says he is 21. Also, loves the game of politics. I hope this blogger comes up with a really good reason for outing this guy. Not yet seeing why it was necessary. At least not by name
He was not outted!
He supplied his saved copies of IMs to that site which then supplied them to ABC.
If you play the game, you accept the results.
I had to post the previous thread under bloggers because the link went to a blog. I guess if it goes to Drudge it can be regular news.

When I say "that site". I mean the site that gave this to ABC, not the one linked by this thread.
Sorry.
US House of Representatives
Washington, DC US
House Page
Office of the Clerk
September 2001- June 2002
As I understand it, he provided that info 3 years ago and not recently. Someone sat on it until it was useful as an October Surprise.
Doesn't look like it to me.
OM!! DRUDGE DOES IT AGAIN!! The RATS will be deep up to their necks in CACA on this one!!
Do you know how IMs work? He had to be saving them for something.. and the timing is convenient.
Democratic involvement is logical...but 'pro-gay?' What IS your point?
