You can't have sex with kids, though. There is no way to excuse Foley on this one, if these accusations are true, he is a big a pervert as any other pedophile.

The age of consent in DC is apparently 16. This "kid" was fully legally capable of consenting to any relationship.

No one is defending Foley. HE gone, he is being investigated. He will be prosecuted. Not the case on the other side.
56 Congressional Democrats, including powerhouses Harry Reid, Byron Dorgon and John Murtha are facing serious ethics or criminal investigation. NONE of them have forced to resigned or been removed from important Congressional assignments by their leadership
4 Senior Republicans have been required to resign by their party due to ethics failings.
If the integrity of the Leaders of your country is the fundamental issue for you, pretty clear WHICH side of the divide you should be on Nov 7th.

"You can't have sex with kids, though."
An 18 year old isn't a kid.
You also shouldn't be giving condoms to 6th graders or teaching that a homsexual lifestyle is acceptable. But the Left does this every day in our public schools.
The RATS are playing the exclusion game while claiming they are the party of inclusion.
Also, this isn't about Foley. It's about the RATS trying to bag Hastert four weeks before an election. Bottom line is Foley is a fag and the world knew it. The only people that didn't know it were Valerie Plame and Joe Wilson.

The Intern in question was 16 at the time. In DC, 16 is the age of consent. Therefore he is not a pedofile.

Foley was a garden variety homosexual lusting after a teenage young man. The Democratic Party is filled with such men. But the Democrats lionize such men (reelect them and give them standing ovations in Congress, e.g. Rep. Gerry Studds) and celebrate such perversions among their own.
It was predictable that the Democrats would imply this young man (the page) was actually an 11 year old prepubescent boy. They needed to engage in such a deception to make their smear campaign work without offending the vast army of homosexual men in their party who are share the same perversion as Foley.
What wasn't predictable was how many FReepers would buy into this ragged and buffoonish deception.

What if the "kid" was 18?
