After interviewing some 40 former congressional pages, FBI agents have yet to turn up any evidence of direct sexual contact between underage pages and former Congressman Mark Foley.
Instead, according to law enforcement officials and several former pages, a pattern is emerging of seduction by Foley that began when the boys were 16 and 17. In cases where actual sex followed, it was not until the boys were at the legal age of 18.

Maybe he really is just a creep, not a criminal.
Still sick if Foley used the page program as a recruiting center for future sex partners. Kind of like a President using the intern program for sex partners.
It appears he didn't lie about it under oath either nor did he use the power of his office to obstruct justice.
Now, if he were a Democrat...
Foley is different from that "proud" Democrat fag who is being worshipped by Democrats how?
Exactly. This would be a "politically motivated witch hunt".
They're too busy with Weldon's daughter...
Nasty...
Talk about invasion of privacy!!!
He knew what he did wrong, resigned and sought help.
I understand the Feds may have found some Foley photo albums with some potentially damaging evidence, but so far they've been useless since all the pages are stuck together...
So, when is the lamestream media going to admit that despite Foley's perversions, he didn't actually break any laws?

It doesn't matter. This guy could end up being the victim of mistaken identity or was set up the bomb by a spook from the Dem ranks. Of course I don't think this is the case but the fact of the matter is the Democrats have decided to embark on the Richard Jewell/ Mark Carr strategy. Toss up rumor and innuendo and let the compliant and hysterical 24/7 media take it from there. If the person is vindicated the media will make note of this in a 6pt font note on the margin of the paper.
"The Foley Story" is a typical media creation in that it now has nothing to do with facts. You just say "The Foley Scandal" and people are supposed to shriek in horror. The real Foley Scandal pretty much ended where it began - with his resignation. But Harry Reid is still in office.
"He spotted me when I was a page and set the hook while I was still in high school," one former page told ABC News. "He didn't reel me in until he showed up at my college campus on a congressional visit. We had sex," said the page, who has been interviewed by the FBI."
I don't understand what's going on. It's not like he was raping them. It's apparently consensual. They were of legal age. When I was 18 I knew the difference between men and women. These guys he was hitting on were homosexuals.
I don't like it, but to be fair why don't we start checking into the sexual habits and pickup lines of every homosexual Demoncrat in congress?
He should join NAMBLA and the Democrats would LOVE him!! Or maybe he could become a Gay Boy Scout LEADER and they would ADORE him!!!!
LOL! It does sound like Foley was similar to Clinton who had his own mental list of what was acceptable in anticipation of future testimony.
