Former Page from Kentucky Says He was Contacted by Foley (now in Iraq)
Edited on Thu Oct-05-06 06:06 PM by chat_noir
While the FBI is busy contacting former House pages to see if they got illicit e-mails from Congressman Mark Foley or anyone else, WHAS11 News has learned that a former page from Kentucky has said yes, Foley contacted him.

According to Congressman Ron Lewis, the former page is now a soldier in Iraq. But five years ago, he was a teenage page in the U.S. House who was the subject of some kind of questionable contact from Congressman Mark Foley.

Lewis’s chief of staff got a satellite phone call from Iraq Tuesday afternoon from a man who wouldn't identify himself. But he did say he was a soldier from Kentucky’s Second Congressional District who wanted to give Lewis a heads up.

“To let us know that he had been approached by Mark Foley in 2001 and that he is speaking to the proper authorities, to a JAG officer who will then pass that on to the FBI,” says Lewis.

2. Yes those soldiers, completely lacking in patriotism, just trying to bring
down the GOP. Terrible thing, that! :sarcasm:

3. keep them coming. The more, the better, the less likely negative
less likely these former pages will suffer retribution.
