RE: "Lawmaker's Intentions Appear Clear In Exchanges"

In a report that gets too disturbing to repeat here, the Washington Post shows that the emails to some pages clearly crossed the line. (Link to WP ariticle same name as referred in post title is second link below -- the green or salmon paragraph.)

It also shows that Foley offered access and help in advancing careers in exchange for the sexual communication and possibly physical contact.
BTW, ABC reports that Rep Deborah Pryce has called for an investigation of rumors that Foley tried to enter the page domitory one night.

Republicans keep hinting they could take some others down in the House with this, but, well if there were any Democrats or the Independent doing these kinds of things to House pages, you know their names would already be national news.

And it gets worse: According to the ABC report linked above, apparently, complaints about Foley's behavior were funneled to Foley's staff.
