Are you denying Foley is a pederast? Are you actually trying to say this guy is not bad news, or that because someone else is bad news it's not such a bad thing? Come on.
(And, yes, Studd's boy may have been a year older than Foley's, but I wouldn't let my kids hang around him. Do you have anything more recent than 23 years ago to distract attention? Something like, say, DeLay or Abramhoff? Condi or Rumsfeld?)

Emailing a sixteen year old about sex is a pederast? Sex with a sixteen year old is not paedophila, but emailing a sixteen year old about sex is paedophilia? Give this up - you are being an idiot. In many states having sex with a sixteen year old is not a crime. In the rest sex with a sixteen year is statutory rape, not a child molesting crime. Are you telling me you have never found a sixteen year old attractive? I am not defending Foley, I am just stating calling him a pederast is political grandstanding B.S. and feeds right into the Far Right Christian propaganda that all Homosexuals are Paedophiles.
There is a big difference between being attracted to a post pubescent and a prebubescent. There is a reason that child molesting is considered a much more heinous crime than statutory rape. Not that statutory rape isn't bad, just child molesting is a lot worse.
