>XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX THU OCT 5 2006 2:53:48 ET XXXXX
CLAIM: FILTHY FOLEY ONLINE MESSAGES WERE PAGE PRANK GONE AWRY
**World Exclusive**
**Must Credit the DRUDGE REPORT**
According to two people close to former congressional page Jordan Edmund, the now famous lurid AOL Instant Message exchanges that led to the resignation of Mark Foley were part of an online prank that by mistake got into the hands of enemy political operatives, the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal.
According to one Oklahoma source who knows the former page very well, Edmund, a conservative Republican, goaded an unwitting Foley to type embarrassing comments that were then shared with a small group of young Hill politicos. The prank went awry when the saved IM sessions got into the hands of political operatives favorable to Democrats.
The primary source, an ally of Edmund, adamantly proclaims that the former page is not a homosexual. The prank scenario was confirmed by a second associate of Edmund. Both are fearful that their political careers will be affected if they are publicly brought into the matter.
The prank scenario only applies to the Edmund IM sessions and does not necessarily apply to any other exchanges between the former congressman and others.
The news come on the heels that Edmund has hired former Timothy McVeigh attorney, Stephen Jones.
Developing...
Right, I can see someone getting an attorney just to help with the media etc...but a CRIMINAL defense attorney? Hmmm, makes you wonder doesn't it?
Hello - the page WAS NOT UNDERAGED !!!!!!!!! Get the facts. The age of consent in DC is 16 - the page was 18.
Get it now ?
Hey, I have been following this for the last few days. This is getting better and better. This is a "TwoFer" for us. Got rid of the Florida guy with a queer eye, replaced him with a real man with our values and have the nuts on their heels.
Life is good right now for us. Just took a shower after visiting Dork's for Dummie's and well, sH$t, it's soooo good!!!
It's time for our Republican politicians to come back to conservatism and fiscal responsibility and stop spending like drunken sailors. I mean no offense to drunken sailors.
This may be breaking on Fox today, but it was reported by the Jerusalem Post yesterday. Here's yesterday's post on the topic.

I have been saying that Foley did the right thing by leaving, all week. I haven't defended his homosexuality either. I posted FACTS to you; you post emotional drivel and arrogant, meaningless replies.
Just how old ARE you kid....16?
Again, get the facts. The age of consent in DC is 16. 16. OK ? There was nothing illegal. Immoral, yes, but not illegal.
Which mke me wonder why he was online for 20-25 seconds yesterday at approx. 1:45pm. I still think someone else has access to his account.....
Is he cracking under the pressure. Hope he is not another Arkancide.
BUMP

So what am I missing?
Actually.....I think it's 18 in florida....and Foley might have been in florida IM'ing to DC..so it's a loop hole that could swing either way I think.
Good........now go do your homework.
Since Edmund is a Dem. operative he COULD be Arkancided.
Between you and me....a 21 year old is still a child.
