Frankly, it doesn't matter if

against it.

Wrong. We're talking about a former page. A former supervisor (which in this
case he wasn't, BTW) making a pass at a former employee over the age of
consent isn't sexual harassment for legal purposes.

Part of the problem is putting much faith in Drudge. We are not talking
about one page, but several, and some of the emails were sent while the
recipients were pages.


While it was wrong in my view, the law says otherwise.

It's too early to say, what, if any, laws were broken. If I were to
guess, I would say that unless there was inappropriate physical contact,
Foley probably won't face charges.
