I'm seeing an inconsistency among those that dismissed Clinton's behavior, yet feel Foley has behaviour is so much more serious that his resignation is called for.
Le'ts see: A 40-something President, married, actually engages in oral sex, sexual manipulation of a cigar, phone sex with a teenager (Lewinsky was 19 at the time), then lies about it under oath committing a crime, and that is insufficient an offense to resign over.
An old Congressman (don't know his age -- probably in his 50s) sends sexually explicit Instant Messages to a 16-yo page, breaks no laws in the process of doing so, and that is sufficient an offense for him to resign.
The important standard in your reasoning seems to be that the page was a minor (barely), and that (puzzlingly) the solicitation was homosexual.
For the record, I find what he did to be absolutely ludicris, and if he didn't resign, it is my view that he should be expelled from Congress for such behavior.

Both caught soliciting teens, one have oral sex with the teen and the other sending sexual emails.
One resigns, one doesn't.
Which one would you guess had the decency to resign?
-
lol.... how decent of him.

Decency? Hardly.
He resigned so that the republicans wouldn't take a hit, just him.
-
Hastert is pretty much finished.
-
Maybe. Though I don't think it will play out against him.
-
Maybe not.
But watch..... cuz this is boomeranging right at the guy.
-
You may be right, but I don't think he was slammed too hard in that article. And that's what would determine if he'd get caught up in it, not the following articles.
-
Btw.... Can I ask you a question?
'Cuz yer in a better position to know than me I'm certain....
Why are Republicans so laser fixated on gay stuff, while at the same time always getting busted for gay stuff?
-
I think that it's interesting that some unnamed folks in this thread are trying to argue that there's no difference between soliciting sex with a minor (aka pedophilia) and consenting sex with an adult.
Different cultures, I guess.

I dunno...
Republicans are always talking about teh ghey.....
.... and always getting busted for being teh ghey.
Hell..... even look at the RNC chairman for chrissakes.....
It's rampant gheyness everywhere you look in the Republican party.
And that's fine. I mean, it's not like there's anything wrong with that.
But it's just weird, ya know?

He was acting way beyond acceptable boundaries and should be prosecuted if appropriate. Republicans would never support him staying in office. Can Democrats say the same about one of thiers?
-
You serious?
Republican mantra is basically 'Hire the Worst Person Ever for the Job'.
Because they are insane.
They hire oil men to head up environmetal groups and write policy.
They put the dumbest in charge of education.
And they put this pedophile Foley in charge of..... you guessed it.... The 'Missing and Exploited Children Caucus.'

Everyone is responsible for their own actions. The people that elected this scumbag most likely did not know he was a pervert. You need to ease up a bit before you suffer a Chernobyl.

I aint sufferin some kind of "Chernobyl"..... I'm just wondering why so many Republicans get their shorts in a bunch over gays, then turn out to be gays themselves....
It's totally a weird phenomenon and there's probably something to it... like some kind of denial thing. I aint a psychologist or anything, but there's got to be a reason why so many Republicans turn out to be gay child molesting perverts, doesn't there?

Many people I know would be pedophiles by your standards. (note that age of consent is lower than 18 in most rest of the world) Unfortunately I never got myself qualified in my early adulthood, now I'm prolly too old.
Pedophilia or paedophilia (see spelling differences) is the paraphilia of being sexually attracted primarily or exclusively to prepubescent or peripubescent children. Persons with this attraction are called pedophiles.
