IMO–who cares if the pages were playing a prank? Does that make the things Foley said any less wrong?

I’m not commenting here on Republicans or Democrats…just commenting that regardless of how it started, Foley is in the wrong.

17- There is plenty of proof that 2 bloggers and CREW are behind it. Given that you don’t read, I can see how you missed that.

We are all aware of the e-mails from Aug of 05′. There is nothing to charge the man with nor are they that extreme. It is the im’s that are the most alarming…

No, try again shiloh. Foley was sending disgusting transmissions and the kids strung the jackass along. The kids responded as a joke, but Foley should have known better and should never have gotten himself into the position in the 1st place! Is that clear enough for you?

Read the posts about Hastert to find out!

12-Where did you get that anyone said that Foley was pulling a prank? Again, try reading, it helps when trying to figure out what people are talking about!

Well Chuck I disagree. As I have said, there is more to this than just Foley. And we should be allowed to talk about it. I have stated that Foley is wrong and there is no excuse for this..Not much more I can add to that...But at the present time, there is a call going out for the Speaker of The House to step down and or resign for what he knew and how he reacted. That is where the discussion is at as we speak. The parents of page who received the e-mails had this to say:There has been much media inquiry regarding our son and his time as a house page. Although our son bravely came forward with information regarding Congressman Foley, his experience as a House page was not marred by the kind of wrongdoing that appears to have occurred with respect to other House pages and Congressman Foley. In fact, we are pleased that he had the opportunity to serve as a page in the U.S. House of Representatives and if given the opportunity, he would serve as a page again. We would like to express our support for our congressman, Rodney Alexander, whose office sponsored our son's position as a House page. As far as we know, Congressman Alexander's conduct in this matter has been beyond reproach. He has tried his best to do what we have asked him to do from the very beginning: Namely, to protect the privacy of our son and family from the intense media scrutiny we are now having to endure. In the fall of 2005, as soon as Congressman Alexander became aware of the e-mails received by our son, he called us. He explained that his office had been made aware of these e-mails by our son and that while he thought the e-mails were overly friendly, he did not think, nor did we think, that they were offensive enough to warrant an investigation. Rather, we asked him to see that Congressman Foley stop e-mailing or contacting our son and to otherwise drop the matter in order to avoid a media frenzy. He did so. If we had any other knowledge or evidence of potential impropriety, we would have asked for the matter to be treated differently. For instance, we were not aware of the instant messages that have come to light in the past few days. These instant messages, which have only recently surfaced as a result of the news of the ambiguous e-mails received by our son, are separate matters. It appears that Hastert is telling the truth and acted based on the emails that the parents had brought to his attention. Somehow, and I don't believe by their son, the emails got into the hands of some far left-wing gays that are hell bent on outting gay Republicans..Because of their hate filled agenda, they managed to drag a kid into this that was first the victim of Foley and now is their victim. The mistake they made is leaving a paper trail. That paper trail is beginning to lead to some high ranking Democrats. Pelosi wants people to testify under oath, but is refusing to do so herself? Why? And why wouldn't she want the Page system overhauled? Do you really think this is the only problem in the Page system? Based on the history of the past 30 years, sexual harrassment and or acts, seems to be an ongoing problem.

This is getting really sick guys. I don’t care if the kids were baiting Foley, *IT’S IRRELEVANT*. Even talking about it this close to the incident gives the appearance of not placing blame squarely where it belongs.

Besides, when did any of the Republican “values candidates” make mention of Monica’s silly girlish pranks? The double standard is sooooo transparent here.

It’s disappointing to see RV sink to this level.

Dave- it looks like Brian Ross came up with a way to write a story…there are no e-mails to back it up. Anything else?
