The poster is full of something, it's more than just gas though.
See post #119.
I'm in no way trying to excuse Foley, but I'm beginning to ask myself these same questions because there is too much "evidence" popping up. In the past, I've been told to never take an IM log as proof of anything because they can be so easily faked. Are we even sure that these are all true logs?
I think it's clear that Foley is guilty of showing too much interest in some pages, but as disgusted as I am with him, I would be even more disgusted and outraged if people are lying and faking evidence to put more nails in his coffin.
Was the page FROM San Diego and Foley went to see him there when he was a page? How could a young page travel to San Diego on his own to meet up with Foley there? or are we speaking about someone who was several years beyond "page age" when he met up with Foley? I'm doubting the authenticity of the IMs, but that's just me.
The "page" that the IMs were written to is probably 19 or 20 by now, maybe older.
Thanks for the clarification, btw. :)
If the IM's were false, Foley would not have resigned. The emails he fought, but when the IM's came out he immediately resigned. He could say that they were false if in fact they were false, but he has not. I don't see why this is an issue. The issue is whether the House leadership knew about the IMs- all evidence points to no, they only knew about the E-Mails.
Guess I'm hoping for a smoking gun full of blanks. Foley is totally guilty and that's that...
I haven't a clue but I'm sure more and more will be revealed in the days ahead.
This is NOT good, but what's even worse, is that someone had this stuff and sat on it for years; only to release it now.
Hugh Hewitt pointed out, and maybe it's already posted, that whoever held the IM's should be prosecuted for conspiracy, since failure to report is participation in the crime.
And keep things on the thread; DON'T us FREEPmail for what it is not supposed to be for!
Hewitt is correct and I hope the FBI is breathing down the neck/s of that person/people, as we type.
What pisses me off though is when peole pop off without all the facts.............

Is there a chance these IM's are fake or created for ill purpose and not by Foley.
Well said.
Yes.
No argument there. In fact, that part seems to be already handled.
The part remaining is to thoroughly investigate the sources and timing of the info release. The 'rats and MSM need to be nailed, if there are also guilty in this. Note that others have pointed out that the ABC reporter/journalist involved in this "investigation" seems to have been involved in the GM pickup rocket motor explosion staged by SeeBS.
