Actually, I'm not arguing for foley in the least, he's a pedophile that needs to be dealt with.
As is typical, we on the right have no problem taking down our own, yet we cower in the face of the democrat perverts who get mild censures in house, with nods of encouragement from their own. Hence the two fags mentioned.
Pedophilia refers to the attraction to prepubescent or peripubescent children, and is not the correct term in the case of soliciting a 16 year old boy, something a majority seem to have a hard time grasping. When it comes to postpubescent adolescents, the correct term is hebephilia (or ephebophilia). Judging from this incident alone and without knowledge of what else he might've been up to, Foley is a practicing hebephile - or pederast - and not a pedophile.
This little exercise in semantics naturally doesn't change the fact that he should be dealt with accordingly; but the use of incorrect terms is a slight source of irritation to me.
