Now that we know the paige boy, was an 18 year old paige man at the time of the IMs, what will the dems say?

Question

the left drops this bombshell 5 weeks before the election in an obvious attempt to grab power. they hide the identity of the 21 year old accuser, in the hopes his identity will not be revealed until after the elections, but in an ABC glitch, his identity is revealed, he was 18 at the time of the dreaded instant messages. Now since the dems are the party of mass gay weddings and the like, (as well as DEMOCRATIC congressman Studds of Massachusetts, who had an actual relationship with his 17 year old paige, won re-election and retired 13 years later), what is the dems point with this one? Is he still a child predator when he hits on 18 year olds? or will the dems come up with other smear jobs in order to grab power, in lieu of actually campaigning ideas and solutions instead of smears? and pray to allah that it sticks?

Answer 1

The Dems are in a very tough spot. I think this episode will only serve to reinforce the negative stereotypes of gay men as hedonistic, lustful and predatory.

I'm glad Foley is gone. Does that make me a homophobe?

Answer 2

I find Foley's action pretty gross even thought the age of consent is 16 in Washington D.C.

For Jackie, other States with a lower age of consent:

USA by State:
Female/Male Male/Male Female/Female

Alabama 16
Alaska 16 16 16
Arkansas 16
Connecticut 16 16 16
District of C. 16
Georgia 16 16 16
Hawaii 16
Indiana 16 16 16
Iowa 14(f) 16(m)
Kansas 16
Kentucky 16
Maine 16 16 16
Maryland 16
Michigan 16
Minnesota 16
Mississippi 16
New Jersey 16 16 16
New Mexico 17 16 16
North Carolina 16
Ohio 16
Oklahoma 16
Pennsylvania 16 16 16
Rhode Island 16
South Carolina 14 (f) 16 (m)
South Dakota 16
Vermont 16
Washington 16 16 16

Answer 3

Nope, nope and nope! Of direction that is no longer adequate :( The age hole might be first-rate in case your daughter was once forty four and he was once forty however quite... 18 and 14? For starters she would become in jail very with no trouble if the boy's mother and father disapprove. Then there may be the face that the little scamp's jacobs have not even dropped but... Seriously, its a horrible transfer and I'd kill that dating earlier than it takes root and destroys a couple of lifestyles.

Answer 4

People need not confuse the IM's and the emails. The emails, of which there is not sexual content, started when the kid was 16. The IM's started when the kid was 18.

He still should have resigned. Does not matter that the kid was legal. Paiges are wards, with congress being their guardians. It disgusts me that this happened, and still happens. Congress has a long history, both dem and rep, of going after these kids.

Answer 5

Last I heard he was 16. Why is it that Washinton DC has the legal age of consent at 16. Is that so they can legally go after the young boys? Does any state have a consent age that low?

Answer 6

16, 18, whatever. Politically, it makes no difference. Foley is still a creep and a joke, and he's out of congress in any case.

Answer 7

dont make the Studds issue cleaner than it really was. it wasnt JUST a "relationship", it was *sex*. and he never apologized for it the way the Republican in his time did for sex with a 17 year old female. Studds actually said it was no one's business.

Answer 8

I would say why did he resign if the boy was 18 years old?

Answer 9

18? Then why is everyone else still saying 16? He is 19 now and 16 when these IM's started in 2003. He was 18 last year but this started in 2003, PLEASE don't fudge your facts on me.

Answer 10

Monica was over 18 too, I don't see the point of your question.
