Too bad the dems were not talking about that in the beginning instead of salivating over the chance to take down Republicans and gain an upper hand over a contrived scandal fueled by them!

So, who do you see as being particularly aggregious in wanting to throw Denny Hastert under the bus? I just breezed right past all those posts, so I really couldn't say.
The blowback on this one is going to be a b!tch.

But didn't Foley actually send the messages? How does that make them fake? This is speculation, but I think the ex pages got ahold of Foley's email address and started the conversation. They probably thought it was a big joke to lead the gay Congressman on, and see how long it would go on. I have questioned why all of the IM's seemed to come from a period of time 3-4 years ago, and then mysteriously stopped. From what anyone has reported, there were no accusations against Foley until that email came out last year. Does a true Internet predator (not saying that what Foley did wasn't disgusting and wrong) really just stop?
I will be waiting on Jordan's official statement (if one comes), who knows maybe they outed themselves to him at the end of the correspondences, and that is why there haven't been more.

I wonder if Foley wasn't about ready to be done with his difficult life of being a Republican AND in the closet for years.
To: MadIvan
He's also a terrible speller. This was the wanker who caused all this trouble?

"It is my guess that, if it is true that this was a hoax, Foley did not know it and responded with salacious e-mail. So he had to resign because of what he wrote, not what he received.My understanding of the time is this: 1 - There is a report that Foley exchanged emails with an underage former page...EMAIL that seemed a little too friendly.
2 - Foley almost immediately resigned...then checked into alcoholic rehab.
3 - LATER ABC reports AIM messages which are somewhat more explicit. AIM stands for AOL Instant Message...these are different from EMAIL.
4 - Now it seems that the AIMs were a prank and that the former page Jordon Edmonds was over 18 at the time the AIMs supposedly occurred and they were actually a prank to goad Foley into typing something explicit...
Point is Foley resigned due to #1, the reasonably innoquous emails...not the post resignation apparently more explicit AIMs AND the now apparently NOT UNDERAGE correspondent.
Why did he resign...shame, embarrassment AND/OR yet to break info.

The other thing people should consider. IF true it just shattered the rhythm of the Democrat Attack machine was in. It just destroyed what ever follow up the Dem's were planning to keep the Oct Surprise running. NOW they got to come up with something else, and that gets harder. For a short time, probably up to the Election people are going to be a little gun shy about jumping on stories like this for fear of being burned.

This story is happening so fast, that I need to ask a question - was the former page trying to shake down Foley or did he make a false statement to the FBI already?
