How Foley Skirted Rules To Pursue Relationships
How Foley Skirted Rules To Pursue Relationships
Former Pages Describe Lawmaker's Advances

They met on the House floor. He was a 16-year-old political junkie, dressed in the drab navy blazer and gray slacks of a congressional page, rushing phone messages to the members he served. Rep. Mark Foley was tanned and charismatic, a successful politician in his mid-40s willing to joke with him between votes.

They talked perhaps a dozen times. Then at his page graduation ceremony that June, in 2002, he was excited when Foley appeared, uninvited, and dictated his personal e-mail address for the boy to jot in his memory book. "I started contacting him right away," the young man recalled. "I knew a congressman that I . . . talked to online. That was pretty cool."

To Page: "You could always stay at my place. I'm always here, I'm always lonely, and I'm always up for oral sex."

3. Yes, how could the poor lad resist
such a heartfelt declaration - who said romance was dead? I know I always used to swoon when guys said things like that to me. :sarcasm: (not that I really needed to put that there)
