He also sent "overtly" friendly e-mails to a 16 year prompting the 16 yr olds parents to complain.
This is a 52 yr old congressman elected to represent the people of his district not pursue his homosexual appetite!

I am amazed that so many people on this board want to protect this guy and his actions because the people involved were consenting adults.
If the Republicans lose the majority they have done this on their own. I for one will not support the Republican party in any way if they are going to condone this type of behavior.

After he was told to cease contact with the 16 year old that he sent E-Mails to, do you know of anymore that he sent or received from that 16 year old?

I am amazed that so many Freepers have limited reading comprehension skills. That has been a very sad eye-opener to me.

Hunh, the USSC says you can do this stuff. Best way to change that is to replace the court. You won't get the court changed by not voting for Republicans.

Besides, all these guys are dieing of AIDS anyway.

And most of us are surprised at people like you.

Why are you blaming the entire GOP and refusing to vote for any of them, ever again, because of one man?

I have seen no one condone Foley's behavior.

16 years old? Where is your source for that? More anonymous IMs?

Come on man! The whole thing is BS. The guy was an 18 year old adult. This is a non story other than a gay guy getting burned at the stake for having a sex chat with an 18 year old adult.

I doubt very much that you support the Republican party to start with.
