I'm not sure if I put much stock in an unknown blog. But I guess we'll find out tomorrow, now won't we?

This could be real, it could be a blogger looking for attention, it could be fake.

I'd love to see the internet bring this set-up/ambush down, and drag any DNC and MSM abettors down along with it.

And that e-mail recipient's name was...





Derek Jeter.

And now, you know...the rest of the story.

Unfortunately, even with media and Dem shenanigans, the story will be Foley/Hastert for the next 4 weeks.

I am betting this page is actively working for Democrats and perhaps supports gay causes. But it is all not that important unless there were criminal acts involved.

I heard on another post that a Democrat handed the IM History to ABC News.

I fail to see why the media should be releasing this minor's identity.

Question to blogger: How much were you paid and when did they pay you?

"...there is the possibility that this story will not be well received by the major news media..."

Any bets it involves someone in the news media, or even Democrats?

Little Green Footballs and Power Line brought down Dan Blather and his misfit producer.

The serious, professional blogs are more accurate than the LSM.

• In 1983, then-Democratic Rep. Gerry Studds of Massachusetts was caught in a similar situation. In his case, Studds had sex with a male teenage page — something Foley hasn't been charged with.

Did Studds express contrition? Resign? Quite the contrary. He rejected Congress' censure of him and continued to represent his district until his retirement in 1996.

• In 1989, Rep. Barney Frank, also of Massachusetts, admitted he'd lived with Steve Gobie, a male prostitute who ran a gay sex-for-hire ring out of Frank's apartment. Frank, it was later discovered, used his position to fix 33 parking tickets for Gobie.

What happened to Frank? The House voted 408-18 to reprimand him — a slap on the wrist. Today he's an honored Democratic member of Congress, much in demand as a speaker and "conscience of the party."

• In 2001, President Clinton, who had his own intern problem, commuted the prison sentence of Illinois Rep. Mel Reynolds, who had sex with a 16-year-old campaign volunteer and pressured her to lie about it. (Reynolds also was convicted of campaign spending violations.)

We all know it was just Barney Frank living out his young page fantasy on the ohter end of the keyboard and leanin on the chat record button. Barney Frank was the one wearing the page costume.

See this whole Foley thing was just an effort to put the partisan politics behind us and reach out across the aisle........................

Please notify me when either of you publish your findings. I would be more than happy to assist spreading the word about this... All the facts need to be known, IMHO. If this was a set-up then it just makes the problem worse. Not that I have any compassion for Mr. Foley if the allegations are true (even if he was abused as a kid), but to use this as a political tool is also a serious thing, especially when the stakes for this country are so high this coming November.
