If it's a prank... where did all these 'former pages' come from? ABC needs to be part of the investigation, as well as CREW/Sloan and SSP (who btw disappeared the emails when we saw they were altered Friday).

On the Fordham tangent:

While Fordham said he has had no discussions with Reynolds about resigning himself over the ABC incident, Fordham acknowledged he has begun meeting with a lawyer, knowing that the FBI might want to interview him in its investigation of Foley.

While sources close to Foley's congressional office said he and Fordham used to socialize together, Fordham said: "The extent of my social involvement with him would be at political dinners, functions, things like that. . . . It was largely a professional relationship. We were close, I knew his family, but we spent all this time together with other people, as you usually do with politicians."

[BARF ALERT] And now, Fordham said he feels betrayed by his former boss.

"This was someone I had worked for for 10 years and had no inkling that this kind of blatantly reckless and just obscene behavior was going on behind our backs," Fordham said.

Asked why he rushed to Foley's aid when the crisis emerged, Fordham said: "We didn't know till we got that call [from ABC] how bad this stuff was. Frankly, if I had ever known this stuff was out there, I wouldn't be talking to him at all."

I cannot believe that is is a coup by Republicans to take down Hastert. That would be too stupid a play for even the GOP. This is a Rat infested dirty political trick supported by George Sorus money to influence voters to vote Rat.

Now everyone can see that he hired the McVeigh Attorney!

Excellent.

Good job, PKM! You were way ahead of the curve last evening when you reconized Jordan's pic and said something to the effect that he is not a nice person.

I wonder if this will affect Istook's campaign more than anyone else?

And where did this 21-year-old get the money for Jones? Are his parents wealthy? Are they active Republicans?

I love having you as an inside source, you are good! You proved it with your reports on that backpack bomber last fall.

Istook's campaign has been in trouble since it started because of his inept staff and other factors. His press conference today didn't do anything to help him. He was not clear cut on what he wanted to say and portrayed the kid as a victim. Not smart. Better to say no comment until the facts all came out! Right after that, Drudge broke the story the kid said it was a prank.

Channel 9 had the blogger on that outed this guy and turns out he kept trying to call the Istook campaign before he outed him but they wouldn't return his call. Not surprised.

You have brought up some really good points here. I am going to post a link that goes to a Dem site but the info is good from all accounts. I have the full story that has been sent to me numerous times but this link pulls out the Istook part over the past six months as quite a few of us were not supporting Istook for Governor in the primary:

This is looking more and more like a coup attempt within the Republican party to take down Hastert via Foley

How did the IMs and emails get into the hands of democrats? Were the dems snooping in other people's computers?

This could be the modern version of a watergate

He could make five times that amount in either Boston, D.C. of NYC doing the exact same thing. In OK, having a Mercedes for your kid makes to mega-rich.
