YOU are assuming that other Congressmen knew about these sleazy IMs and that has not been proven. They are swarming Hastert to get anything close to an admission of this, but they are fishing. From Drudge's report today I could surmise that at least one boy thought it was a joke, a rite of passage to get "hit" on via IM by Foley. That was wrong. He was preying on pages in an even more disgusting way than clintoon hit on interns. This story is over......Foley is exposed and out, to keep leaking this to the media is possibly "outing" these young men -- something the dem base will not like.

If the dems think the voting base of the conservatives is so wussy that they will run from the Republican party or national security because of this they are really desperate.

No, I am assuming that other Congressmen knew that Foley was the sort of person who would write such e-mails. Evidently the pages who were involved in the "prank" knew that. Surely the man's colleagues knew it as well.

Would anybody care to explain to me how these kids, who are supposed to be some of the brightest in the nation, are so dumb they don't know how to report a man who comes onto them in the capital of the country?
