I look at Wordy’s avatar and sig line, consider past posts, see that he posts not a news story, but this transcript and then he claims it ain’t political.

OK

And I’m the King of Sheba and I have some oceanfront property in Kansas with a really fine bridge on it for sale.

I posted it for consideration and discussion.

Where it went from there is something for us all to consider and discuss.

From what I can tell in reading this thread, you were the first one to make anything political about this.

So much for the Moral Majority

CNN.com - Report: Foley had cybersex before vote - Oct 3, 2006

STOCKTON, California (CNN) -- Former Rep. Mark Foley allegedly had Internet sex with a former page before going to a vote on the House floor in 2003, ABC News reported Tuesday.

The network published a partial transcript on its Web site but did not quote the exchanges in which it said the congressman and the high school student apparently had orgasms.

Former pages gave ABC News the transcripts, which were dated 2003, the network reported.

How would they know - if they weren't there.......... come on an IM isn't like a stained blue dress with forensic evidence.......... all it says is that the guy used extrememly poor judgement and the children were not safe around him. It doesn't imply any physical contact. This story ain't over yet - this is gonna go on and on............ meanwhile what the hell - a child of 16 is old enough to know what he's doing so there is some wierd shit goin on there too. It's not like this page is 2 yo. It seems like they didn't use very good judgement in selecting this page any more than Foley used in talking with the kid. Hell in backwoods Arkansas - 16 is a full growd grandma!!

In DC 16 is the legal age of consent. So while this is repulsive and wrong from a public servant regardless of his party affiliation....I wonder if he broke any laws. I haven't had time to keep up with the flurry of news....has he been charged with breaking any laws?

Well....I was the first to mention it politically but you can't tell me that it's not the reason the wordster posted it. LOL. And if I did make it political...then so be it, my mistake. I don't think it should be politicized but the liberal media is all over this like stink on a demokrat.... They are making it political and that sucks. The guys is a perv and has resigned very quickly. He did the right thing by resigning. Too bad we can't get a few Kennedy's to do the same.....

The whole thing is political cuz it's poli-ticks we are watching and it's poli-ticks we are infested with... on both sides.

The timing of the release of the messages smells of political timing.... releasing them on the last day of CONgress was thoughtfully planned and they were hoping for certain results. We'll see how it works out.

Anyone who had prior intimate knowledge of these shananigans and withheld information is morally guilty of allowing cyber-pedophilia..... for political gain.

You mean like, the republican leadership?

Pressure on Hastert, Republicans From Foley Scandal Intensifies - WSJ.com

If you're looking to blame another party perhaps for this becoming news then you're looking up the wrong bush. The democrats sent an email out about this morning referencing the wrong Foley
