A Congressman has been accused of sending questionable emails to a sixteen-year old Capitol page, RAW STORY has learned.
Reports circulated on the Internet earlier this week, indicating that in private emails, Congressman Mark Foley (R-FL) had requested photographs of the page, asked what he wanted for his birthday, and inquired about his age. The emails may be viewed below.
A subsequent investigation by RAW STORY discovered that the addresses on the emails were indeed those of Foley and a now-seventeen year old boy, who forwarded them to a fellow staffer. There is no overtly sexual communication in Foley's emails, and the age of consent in Washington, DC is sixteen.
Our investigation also uncovered a MySpace profile attached to the congressman's personal address, containing very little information.
Foley's office has told ABC News that it is their policy to keep pictures of former interns so that they could be remembered by anyone looking to recommend one. However, ABC also reports that the page did not work in Foley's office.
RAW STORY spoke with several sources, who confirmed that they felt Foley was unusually friendly with young Hill pages, but failed to uncover anything of a more serious nature.
Foley's office contends that the Congressman is only guilty of being overly-friendly and has categorized the story as part of an opponent's "smear campaign."
Foley has long marketed himself as a protector of children from sexual predation. In 2003, he became an outspoken critic of a summer nudist camp for children. An amendment by Foley to change federal sex offender laws became part of the Adam Walsh Child Safety and Protection Act of 2006.
We have another perverted politican in office. Folks, vote out the perverted politicans in your state come November!

Congressman Foley has now allow all to know he's a pervert and if ever removed from official Homeland Security hires child sex offenders. Notice Tony Snow still doesn't have security clearance yet all the child sex offender with Homeland Security have the clearance.
I notice Tony Snoe still doesn't have security clearance. He should worry about his employment. And about Foley.. well, this should be a wake up call to Gonzo since he wants the ISP to give up persinal info of subscribers to prosecute pervert. And we have a pervert elected in office!
