A posting of an unredacted instant message sessions between Rep. Mark Foley and a former congressional page has apparently exposed the identity of the now 21 year-old accuser...
ABC RELEASED TRANSCRIPT OF ONE CHAT BETWEEN FOLEY AND A MAN WHO WAS 18 AT THE TIME OF THE INSTANT MESSAGE EXCHANGE.... NETWORK STATED THE MESSAGE WAS TO 'UNDER AGE' TEEN... DEVELOPING...
ABC ONLINE GLITCH LEADS TO IDENTITY OF FOLEY ACCUSER; FEATURED IM EXCHANGE WAS WITH 18 YEAR OLD

That was the site! They had an entire trail on this kid, showing when he was a page and his age at the time. From the date of the IM's, he would have been 18.
Where was the proof he is 16? I found it rather curious from the get go that the person kept replying to Foley's personal questions.
Yes it is, but that's relevant to proposition in bars and actual sex. Thanks to a bill sponsored by ex-Rep. Foley himself, using the internet to solicit sex from anyone under 18 is against Federal law irrespective of the age-of-consent in the relevant jurisdictions.
Foley may be a queer, and a sleezy one at that, but he doesn't even seem to be a hypocrite any more: he didn't break his own law!
Hope that helps a little.
Good attempt at throwing out the red herring. No one here wants Foley back and you know it.

I don't know what info may be reliable or not, but this blogger at "Passionate America" claims to have tracked down the identity of the recipient of the really salacious IMs and claims the guy was 18 y.o. then and is now 21 y.o.
People have pointed out that the age of consent in D.C. is only 16 y.o. anyway, but if any of the correspondence was carried on outside of D.C. then it may be highly relevant if the recipient was in fact 18 y.o.
Again, I have no idea whether his info is really accurate or not, or if he is really justified in revealing the guy's identity, but since this has become a big political scandal with careers being wrecked, possible criminal investigations, etc. it certainly is relevant to know if the recipient was 18 y.o. at the time.
Foley is still a scumbag trolling young males less than 1/2 his age, but it's quite a different matter before the law and before Congress if the IM recipient was NOT a current page and was NOT under 18 y.o.
Anyway, what was Hastert supposed to do, demand to review all of the personal correspondence of a member of Congress?
Hell, the Demagogues won't allow that even for known terrorists, but now they want to treat a member of Congress as though he has zero right to privacy..... interesting.
As I've said, Foley is still scum, but this may come back to bite the MSM and the Demagogues big-time.
Except in at least two of the IM's, the "teen" stated that they were underage. ???
Mine Field TAP DANCE...!
"OK...who's got their waders handy?. We need you to go over to the Daily KOS and look in and see if they've stop throwing things yet"
Doogle
Now the story is about all the politicians who called typical sex talk between two ADULT homosexuals disgusting.
This may be helpful with OReilly interviewing him. Ross may not know about this report and will offer up more provable lies. Just more ammunition.
Read the link at #13. Scroll wwwwaaaaaayyyyy down on the page.
I did, I think. I don't see it.
Anyone know if Britt Hume had anything on his report? I don't catch Britt until 10:00 PM MST
18 is not a kid
Wasn't that in reference to drinking, not sex?
Sometimes he does, but that's after his producers have drawn him pictures. But even then it's a coin toss on whether or not he gets it.
Brian Ross. This is your career calling to say "bye bye"
Oh, and there's this Federal Prosecutor with a subpoena who wants to talk to you about the conspiracy and RICO statutes...
