Last night, ABC News investigative journalist Brian Ross suggested "there may be other members of Congress who engaged in inappropriate behavior towards congressional pages."
Said Ross, "We’re hearing quite a bit from former pages. They’re sending us all sorts of messages about possible other members."
I certainly hope so. It could be earth shattering :)
Why would anyone, and it is now apparent more than one, person makes a conscious effort to save personally very embarassing instant messages, making a permanent record of them, after leading on the congressman?
I'm not defending anyone here, but I find that bizaar.
How many instant messages per day will leak to ABC until the elections?
Who are you suggesting will be the dumped on? the Dems? or us?
I wonder about the girls pages. Had their been prior incident(s) concerning young girls in past ???
ahh yes..the ole rove weather/gasoline price fixing/diebold machine with the Foley add-on..that man is a genius..
On every other thread but this one. :o)
The IMs are the equivalent of a royal blue dress. People save info as CYA moves.
Suggest the FBI checks bank accounts of these young people. Wonder if and how much Soros paid them? If so would that bring a charge of Pandering? Also sounds like a James Carville type of scheme.
The page-gate has not even been opened yet.
I will wager that NO DEMOCRAT will be exposed even if one or more happen to be on the "LIST".
Oh let me guess....they all have 'R' behind their names!!!
Those pages have footnotes ......... by Dick Morris.
Yea or report it at the time it happened in 2003.
This was an ex-page. He could have just blocked Foleys instant messages. That would have been the end of it. Foleys messages would have never again crossed his computer screen.
But.....he didn't. He encouraged them and even saved them. This makes the whole story smell fishier than Hillary Clinton.
me too.
The male prostitution ring was run out of Barney DC home ?!
What year was this ?
3 years ago (+/-)???
Maybe the IM's were not really pages but party operatives, using the pages' id's. Could be a very elaborate sting/trap. Remember the cell call monitoring that just "happened to pick up" GOP calls?
To the extent pages or ex-pages coming forward are motivated politically, they will probably hit Pubbies harder.
BIZARRE is RIGHT! Why would this page let everyone know that he was conversing with a pedofile congresscritter and NOT telling him to GET LOST! Why would he want to expose himself? He must have been paid a good sum of money. From what I've been reading he's enjoying the conversation and didn't complain about it.
