re: your point that when (if) he gave the information to the authorities years ago, and now they pull in out to smear the Republicans, and not to get the pervert away from children, I TOTALLY see your point.
What treachery.

If a picture like that one where any proof, then the pictures of John Kerry on a swift board would make him a hero.

Maybe it's his sister?

I agree. I feel very bad about a young page being enticed by an elected official. Foley is gone. That's good! But as you are growing up, one lesson to be learned is --- how best to handle something like this. As Nancy Reagan said about something else --- JUST SAY NO!

okay, sorry for not posting quite as much, and thus having a few comments, some of which date aways back in the thread...

-i proposed the civil unions for all in my Gov class, and was told by my gov teacher (imagine the anti-weitzel here, btw...) that this was absurd b/c it changed the majority to suit the minority... my view: you cant have you cake and eat it too... either have the word "marriage" be sacramental or legal, sorry it can't be both...

-the gay woman rep from wisconsin is tammy baldwin if im not mistaken... also, im assuming that MNRepub knew this, but there were rumors going around about Foley last year as well... then again, Ive heard in legend of Barney Frank (who definitely makes my favorite politicians list, btw) holding up a list, McCarthy-style, of prominent closeted gay repubs, so you never know... on second thought, this is prolly very dnagerous territory to head into, specutlating on sexual prefeences of memebers of congress.... 8O

edit to add link to article about foley...

My point is someone who had these IMs, not the kid, was holding on to them (for three years?) and released them at an opportune moment, October Surprise. This kid didn't release them last week and I find it appalling that Freepers are trashing this kid and trying to prove that he was 18 and not younger.

This blog outed the kid and not the person who released them to the media.

I really don't know what good comes from plastering this young mans identity on a public forum.

The proper authorities should be interviewing this fellow for relevant info not bloggers who are good with a computer.

I hope this young man comes to no harm for his part in this situation.

OMG! On drudge there is a link to the bogus set up of a 'blog' that was just ready to receive the tip concerning the trolling senator. Unbelievable, a total set-up.

Drudge's headline says the accusing page is now 21! Even if the instant messages are from 2003, he could've been 18 at the time!

This blog outed the kid and not the person who released them to the media.

ABC/Brian Ross outed the kid by carelessly leaving an unredacted version of the log web-accessible (these content management systems can be a bit complex for the journalistic mind, don't you know, kinda like the nuances of blacking something out in PDF, but much more basic).

The big mystery is who gave the logs to Ross. The fact that the kid is Republic campaign staffer (Ernest Istook, running for OK governor) makes it seem unlikely he's the one. So, who did leak them, and how did they get them?

Drudge is linking a report on this that looks like it will damage the whole setup!

If you play the game, you accept the results.

So you're saying that crime victims either need to stay silent or be prepared to be featured all over the front pages? You're a jerk!

This is really unbelievable. Unbelievable.
What a fluke of luck.
TELL me there's not a G-d in this world.
