Yep, the DBM whines about how awful it is that bloggers can publish stories "without any editorial oversight"---when---heh heh---they don't realize that bloggers are the ones doing the editorial oversight---OF THEM!

Once again, media colluding with dems to impact a free and fair election by the people.

Long live truth, freedom and the Republic.

Thanks to all contributing bloggers, FReepers, linkers and researchers.

New Media BUMP!

Heh...I figure I can get away with saying that kind of thing anyway...I'm roughly that kids age anyway. I guess that gives me "moral authority" to imply that he may not be such a Victim™ after all.

Politics is a dirty game and it appears ABC was complicit in this dirty game.

It all depends on what the meaning of "legal" is is.

Can I get a link to where ABC admits that "Some sharp online readers spotted that the boy was technically legal when the exchange took place".

ABC's own blog story: New Foley Instant Messages; Had Internet Sex While Awaiting House Vote

Third paragraph. But tatze and others spotted it first.

"Where did you get the idea he was 18 at the time of the exchange."

"What is it with Drudge always attacking the kids the expose perverts?"
~~
Reporting facts is not attacking. What the alphabet networks do is "journalistic" attacking. Stating facts is delivering news.

It seems to me if Pelosi holds to her story she has just insulted her entire constituency.

I get your point but they have been using the where's bin laden since the day we entered Iraq. They don't care about bin laden or Foley. They want a socialist state and will use anything to seek that end.

Since he was 18 the Democracts must DEFEND exCongressCritter Foley's actions!

You mean IF they weren't hypocrites. Don't hold your breath. Besides, the WHOLE purpose of this is to get the GOP's religious base to get disgusted enough to STAY HOME on election day. PERIOD.

If you care enough to want to fight that, email this to everyone you can, together with a few comments of your own about this Jordan Edmund character or whatever you think is appropriate.

Foley deserves NO sympathy.

The fact he waited until these pages were 18 to advance sexual conversations, so far as we know at this date, does not make him in the right. Fishtalk had it correct. It appears he was trolling for possible "partners" among the group to approach after turning 18. That isn't what the page system is designed for. He was rightly removed from his position.

That said ABC lied about the age and that doens't reflect to their integrity. And it does change things somewhat, because while despicable, an adult does bear some responsibility for their actions. Clinton's conduct was deplorable, but Monica was old enough to say make her own decision. As was this young man.

Nor does it reflect to the credit of the Dems/MSM that knew about Foley's activities to allow his continuance so they could plot a political surprise.

This message was dated April 2003, at approximately 7 p.m., according to the message time stamp at a time when the teen had been 18 for just six weeks. (Some sharp online readers spotted that the boy was technically legal when the exchange took place).

Yep, definitely 18 at that time. So technically legal. Weird, but legal.
