Drudge: These Kids Are 16 & 17 Yr Old Beasts - Egging Foley On!

Drudge:


And if anything, these kids are less innocent — these 16 and 17 year-old beasts…and I've seen what they're doing on YouTube and I've seen what they're doing all over the internet — oh yeah — you just have to tune into any part of their pop culture. You're not going to tell me these are innocent babies. Have you read the transcripts that ABC posted going into the weekend of these instant messages, back and forth? The kids are egging the Congressman on! The kids are trying to get this out of him. We haven't got the whole story on this.

he's into having eggs smashed onto his head isn't he?

he seems to have a definite point of view on the topic...

it just gets stranger and stranger.

......young boys are constantly egging HIM on when he hangs out in front of the local high school.

"Haha, let's see if we can get the old fool to start talking dirty." Makes no difference whether they were egging him on or not. He's the adult.

It's obvious from reading the IMs. He's a kid talking to an adult is a position of great power. There is NOTHING provocative that he said- Foley was peppering him with disgusting questions. The kid reported him and saved the IMs, after all.

Sick fuck- he's no better than the shitbags on Dateline's "To Catch a Predator".

Drudge is KKKarl Rove's operative. Remember that it was the stain on the blue dress that was this creep's claim to fame. Please get the news elsewhere and thanks to the OP for not providing the link to his scummy site.

By that standard, anything goes!

The drug dealer made me do it.

You know, the bottom line is, Republicans are the first to blame, and the last to take responsibility.

I mean, if Henry Hyde can successfully argue that the child he fathered out of wedlock when he was 41 was a "youthful indiscretion," how in the world can a 52-year-old man be held accountable for his actions when confronted with the overwhelming skullduggery that your average 16-year-old can muster? Maybe we need to flip-flop the statutory rape laws, and hold the youngsters responsible for molesting the old stuff?

Thank God for Matt (I broke a story that was spoon-fed to me once!) Drudge, fearless defender of callow 52-year-olds.

the victim. Drudge is acting like a pedophile.

I don't get the media's fascination with dredge.. I really don't.

I do not find it inconceivable that a 16-year-old would sexually lead on an older man; I don't know whether they did or not in this case, but I'm not able to rule it out. That does not in any way excuse the adult responding. As Republicans are so fond of reminding us, we are responsible for our own behaviour.

... "blame the victim" crap, and that it gets WIDE attention.

Then I can sit back and wait for the PUBLIC STATEMENTS the REPUBLICAN parents of these kids will make when they get wind of it ...

:nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke: :nuke:

...he actually said "that poor Congressman" while referring to the chat transcripts...

Really f'in hilarious.

Of course, I was kidding, while Drudge was, as always, pursuing the acme of journalistic integrity.

Smile on your face? Or ...?

in setting up President Clinton. Will they be the same four to defend Mark and create sympathy for him?

Will the code words be the blue jock strap?

Oh no, say it ain't so!! :cry::wow::cry:

He spends all his time screwing around on the Internet, spreading lies about people. Maybe someone should rape him. He's not so innocent.

Yes, the moral values crowd sure does love Drudge.

He didn't have to act on it.

What a useless gasbag.

Drudgey boy's behavior on the internets.

More blame the victim bs from the party of super morals and holiness. :puke:



Hey lurking freeps--- Face the facts, the guy is a pervert. There is no excuse for this behavior. Spinning it is kind of like condoning it.

BlameTheVictim

Po' Fooley! All them skinny li'l Lo-li-todds runnin round the Capitol...

How could a man resist their pimply teenaged charms?

I bet those pages were dressed suggestively, and that they therefore deserved to be harassed by this poor, innocent 50 year old man!

Can we blame kids for not coming forward? This is just appalling. Shame on Drudge. His argument is nothing new.

Victims of sexual harassment or abuse typically encounter this type of reaction when they come forward with their stories.

Many victims simply aren't believed, so nothing is done. Even when they are believed, the crime is often covered up, so, again, nothing is done. Often, the victim is accused of inciting or encouraging the unwelcome behavior. The victim's personal life is scrutinized and any past sexual history is used against her or him. The victim is told s/he "asked" for it. There is in law enforcement a perception that without blood and bruises, there is no real evidence of crime.

I imagine these boys are learning what rape victims have known for a long time. Once, the case enters the legal system, the victim will be victimized again and again. A traumatic experience for the strongest of individuals.

I hope they all come from strong families who can help them get through this.
