Yes. Let us enjoy our celebration tonight, please, until tomorrow morning at least, OK?

The Dem's look so frikkin foolish on this whole thing.

Anne Coulter just had a great signoff on Fox, she really b-slapped the Young Democrats representative who was there, with her voice shaking. Ann was as sharp and sarcastic as ever. Great!

They Dems have not got what they wanted. no resignation by Hastert and now the backlash begins.

Kudlow,Blankely,George Will (calling for resignation) are like the French-better to be fighting against them then with them

OK, but they have not said he was 18 at the time of the IM either, have they?

Hey...they know his is 21 now, his birthday is in February, so during 2003, he was only under 18 for a few weeks...do the math.

Either way... ABC lied and the over sensationalizing of this ordeal will be the story's death knell.

Excellent. We need bumper stickers! Send this to Rush Limbaugh!

Democrats are for adult consensual homosexual sex when it benefits their party, but they're against it when it allows for feigned moral outrage. Their Libertarianism is very opportunistic.

I hope Limbaugh picks this up and runs with it if it's legit.

This is what it appears might have happened.

It does appear that Foley was at least cognizant of when his "friends" became "legal." That may even have been behind him asking about one's birthday---maybe it was even sexual innuendo---"what do you want for your birthday [when you are legal and can have homosexual sex]?"

It's still very gross and wrong to recruit and groom underage youths for a sexual relationship once they hit their birthday. But ABC may very well have pimped the sensationalism factor by picking out the most salacious IM and tagging it as having occurred when the page was underage.

Or maybe ABC was just incompetent and didn't distinguish between the IMs based on date.

Man, I loathe that guy. How can an IM conversation NOT be consentual?! If ya don't want to chat, you either ignore the IM or signoff. What an idiot he is!

I still think this guy is a wolf in sheep's clothing, a Dem plant. But, he is just one of the guys. We need to keep perspective.

But hey, we seem to have a better man as a replacement. Negron is already looking as the front runner in his district's race. Silver lining...
