Blogger who outed boy in Foley scandal screwed up big time, pulled post...

Hate-filled Okie blogger blows it big time:

Blogger pulls post that 'outed' boy in Foley scandal, claimed he's of age

RAW STORY
Published: Wednesday October 4, 2006

The blogger who claimed that one of the pages in the Foley scandal was not under the age of eighteen has pulled the post, RAW STORY has learned.

The blog Passionate America revealed the identify and published a photograph of one of Foley's alleged victims today, hours ahead of its announced 4 pm CST unveiling. The post was pulled shortly after. RAW STORY did not link to the claim, for ethical reasons.

In it, Passionate made the claim that the young man is currently 21 years old.

RAW STORY can verify that this was not the Congressional page from the emails that originally surfaced. The recipient of those is currently 17 (and was 16 at the time of the correspondence).

Go read the rest.

This is just too rich: first, as RS points out, Passionate AmeriKKKa's William "Wild Bill" Kerr screwed up the fundamental facts about the intern and the age.

To top it all off, Kerr looks to have attempted to intimidate a young man who is most likely a witness in a federal probe. And, as I recall, there are laws against that.

Maybe "Wild Bill" should change his name to "Ben Dover."

1. Hahahahahaha!!! God, they are so fucking STOOOOOOPID!!!

Way to get the FEEBS crawling up your ass...intimidate a witness who is also a minor!!!!!

Damn, they are so EAGER to try to deflect the blame, aren't they? Were they planning on calling this kid a "cheap little slut who asked for it?"

I've never heard of that website...but "Passionate" in the title seems a bit....hmmm...curious to me. It's politics, not sex.

2. I guess the VRWC has already revoked Wild Bill's Junior Detektive Badge!

In the immortal words of Bugs Bunny, "Whudda maroon!"

4. Even if he wasn't a minor

It's still sexual harassment. Does this asshat think constantly IMing pages, who aren't in any position to fight back, with suggestive and outright pornographic material is somehow GOOD? I hate repukes. I truly, truly hate them.

7. This is the same sweaty little moran

that claimed he had a blockbuster story of the emails being forged. That was just before Foley's lawyer said that he admitted to the emails and IMs.

10. Is it just me or is there something inconsistent about

the OP ending with:

Maybe "Wild Bill" should change his name to "Ben Dover."

Sexual harrassment/rape is a joke?!

12. Sexual harrassment/rape is a joke?! No...

... but in the case of the McCarthyite blogger, I will make an exception for a case of truly ironic karmic blowback.
