1. Yeah right, Drudge

If there's nothing there then how come he resigned so quick? Repukes don't resign unless they're actually caught moving the dead body, metaphorically (and perhaps literally) speaking

[Gman]

2. Nobody cares

if it's on Drudge, its crap anyway.

[yurbud]

3. Even if the guy was of age, that means Foley was doing what they

raked Barney Frank over the coals for doing for decades.

ABC ONLINE GLITCH LEADS TO IDENTITY OF FOLEY ACCUSER

FEATURED IM EXCHANGE WAS WITH 18 YEAR OLD

Wed Oct 04 2006 20:32:06 ET

A posting on ABCNEWS.COM of an unredacted instant message sessions between Rep. Mark Foley and a former congressional page has exposed the identity of the now 21 year-old accuser.

The website PASSIONATE AMERICA detailed the startling exposure late Wednesday.

ABCNEWS said in a statement: "We go to great lengths to prevent the names of alleged sex crime victims from being revealed. On Friday there was a very brief technical glitch on our site which was overridden immediately. It is possible that during that very brief interval a screen name could have been captured. Reviews of the site since then show no unredacted screen names."

SEX CHAT WAS WITH 18 YEAR OLD

On Tuesday ABC news released a high-impact instant message exchange between Foley and, as ABC explained, a young man "under the age of 18."

ABC headlined the story: "New Foley Instant Messages; Had Internet Sex While Awaiting House Vote"

But upon reviewing the records, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned, the young man was in fact over the age of 18 at the time of the exchange.

A network source explains, messages with the young man and disgraced former Congressman Foley took place before and after the 18th birthday.

8. I think ol' drudge is using that information from wild bill

The information that was pulled within minutes because it was wrong. drudge needs to learn to check his stories.

9. Claiming that the former congrsnl page, became 18 DURING the IMs

Which still means, that this Predator, Foley, went after this person while in the Congressional page program, while this person was under age. And it also does nothing to dispute that he continued to look at the program, for his own pool of underage, boy-toys.

Simply, it's wishfull thinking on the part of the politically damned!

10. Raw Story says different?

Blogger reposts item 'outing' boy in Foley scandal, claimed he's of age

RAW STORY
Published: Wednesday October 4, 2006


The blog Passionate America has revealed the identity and published a photograph of an alleged victim of disgraced Rep. Mark Foley in a post that was pulled and later re-posted with additional information.

RAW STORY can verify that the young man in question is not the Congressional page from the emails that originally surfaced; with that in mind, a direct link to the Passionate America post is not provided here.

RAW STORY has learned that the recipient of the Foley emails is currently 17 (and was 16 at the time of the correspondence).

Passionate America contends that the young man they identified took part in some of the instant message conversations obtained by ABC news. In those messages, the boy explicitly identified himself as being under the age of 18.

If the boy was over the age of 18 at the time of the messages, Foley's communication with him would likely still be considered criminal. Sex predator legislation is generally written bearing in mind that law enforcement sting operations rely on undercover officers pretending to be minors.

However, even if he is now 21, the man identified could still have been as young as 16 at the time of the messages. ABC has stated that they are in possession of chat logs from as much as five years back.

11. Its kind of comical to watch them squirm like rats in a trap

The excuses are becoming waaaaay out there.

[question everything]

13. I am not going to click on your link and to give Drudge more hits

(and ad revenue) but if this is the same as Al Franken was talking, that Drudge blames the Page - I think that this should pretty much finish him as any credible source.
