I have no sympathy for Foley - conduct unbecoming a representative at the very least.

What he did was repulsive. He resigned in disgrace. But, he is also a human being. That's all I am saying.

Regardless..Foley was DUMB to have fallen for it....irresponsible and undisciplined. I fault him for that.

But the idea of some (conservative) kid baiting him that way...is just infuriating.

i think foley resigned mostly because of others telling him that his homosexuality hurting the party. I do not care if he is gay myself, but it was to become a shadow over him.

You're thinking of Jerry Lee Lewis. His first wife was 13.

Only different in the sense you dod not know what the intern said first. If a cop were to type that he is a 14 year old girl who wanted to give the guy on the other side of the computer oral sex, it would indeed be deemed entrapment by a court. We do not know what the intern said first to elicit those responses from Foley and the intern was 18 at the time.

Whatever.

It doesn't really matter to me. I don't view this as a criminal case. I view it as a moral case. Foley was immoral. Hastert was wrong in not doing anything about it.

If it is true, the Democrats are dead.

Pickups in the House and Senate.

This is the link to Edmund's MySpace page. Read his profile... he calls himself an "insensitvie a$$hole". How true. I wonder how long he'll keep that up online. I don't know how to grab a snapshot of it, but someone should.

I agree ... As a public service, I will translate Drudge's info. "I set Foley up by egging him into cyber-sex while I recorded it all and passed it around to people I knew would use it for a political dirty trick. Now that the FBI is involved they will see all the IMs, not just the ones i cherry-picked for release, and will see I am the one who initiated it, so my lawyer advised me to use the "prank gone wrong" excuse."

Right!

I think it's looking like the pages were preying on a gay Congressman, not the other way around.

It is how amazing they are on these coup attemps and other smear attempts.

Richard Poe labled and described them as electronic Brown Shirts, and I added the Trolling Moles.

Watch for them to pop up here in the Irey campaign, If you sense that you have identified one of them on this board attacking her, ping me and freep mail me and Coop. We will out them like these klowns have been and will be.

Why did Foley resign?

There was ongoing murmors among the pages that labeled Foley as a closet homo who was overly friendly with pages.

The prank was on Foley and Foley took part of the supposed real IM chat. Hence his problem is still there, a closet homo with an affinity with younguns.

The problem is now there is a little issue with who had these IMs, when were the IM obtained and what type of lawsuits will this lead to if the Jordan character is indeed the conservative prankster.... Tune in.

"Page prank"? As in "boys just being boys"? In the highly charged political atmosphere? No, I'm not buying the "prank" concept. I've seen too many of these "pranks" before.

Another thought: Was Jordan having to prove he truly belonged to the Democrat Gang?

My prayers for Congressman Foley, and yes, Jordan, too: Ya got used by some plug-ugly creeps.
