FOLEY BOMBSHELL COMING ... FORMER CONGRESSMAN'S ATTORNEY TO HOLD NEWS CONFERENCE IN WEST PALM BEACH, FLA.
You mean this congressional network?...
From information volunteered by at least two former Hatch staffers, and as reported in the Washington Post and other media, he documents in question were inadvertently disclosed and obtained off an unsecured shared network accessible to both Democrat and Republican Judiciary Committee staff. The disclosure of these and other documents was caused by the negligence of the Leahy technology staff. They inadvertently allowed access to files of both Republican and Democrat staff that had joined the Committee after the Jeffords switch. In short, there was no breaking and entering. Staffers were entitled to access their own desktop computers and the committee network on which the documents were inadvertently disclosed. The documents were disclosed through the window labeled "My Network Places."
As former White House counsel C. Boyden Gray concluded in the Wall Street Journal on December 23, 2003: "The Democrats designed a faulty "shared network" where files could be accessed freely by staffers of either party; if you had material you wanted kept completely confidential, you were advised to store it on your own hard drive. No one exceeds their authority when they log on and access files on their own computer's desktop. Democrats, in other words, were the ones who disclosed their own documents, which were in fact entirely unrestricted."
Were the Democrats aware of the glitch and did they take steps to repair it? Yes they were informed, and no they did not repair it.
The notes are from 2003-2005. He would of been an adult in August so the sources age is irrelevent
"It's Bush's fault."
Oh, yeah blame Foley's mom for his being gay!
"Oh my, Petronski, isthisnickcool! Where did I go wrong with you guys? Come back to Jimmah, hear? Or else I won't let you see Lilian again."
Yeah, it's impossible to believe---absolutely incredible---to believe that in a town such as Washington *only* Republicans, not one single Rat, knew about this garbage.
In fact, with the Rat record on sex scandals, it would surprise me lately if we get to the end of this storyline without some D's being involved in similar conduct big-time as well.
I'm with you on this. Kinda like how the feds set up Marion Barry or made John Jenrette take the Adscam bribe. They're all victims.
Is that House? Way younger? And with a shaven face?

I'm perfectly aware that IM's remain on a PC...I've checked my ex-wife's IM's in the past. What I said was..."I want to know how Foley's IM's were collected."
I flipped over to CNN. What is the deal with that set? It is the weirdest looking thing I have ever seen.
YOU are missing the point...
NO ONE is disputing that what Foley did was WRONG...
HE's GONE, as it should be...
What WE are pointing out is the absolute HYPOCRASY of the Democrats on this issue.
If he were a Democrat, is there ANY doubt in your mind that 5,000 gays would be rioting on the Capital steps RIGHT NOW, calling it a "Private and Personal Matter!"..
They HAVE done that before, you know?
Yep sadly a joke
Glad to hear there are still some real men out there. You know, the kind who don't make sheep nervous....

Sounded like a lot of the DU'rs were envious of Foley or projecting. They were really whipping up some personal sounding fantasies.
If so, it would be silent.

For more "relevant" news....the question of the day by Jack Cafferty is:
Do you think George Bush is being truthful about the war in Iraq??
He killed Jon Benet Ramsey!.......
That kinda made me laugh.
