Hastert Abused Males Prior to Congress

AP: Illinois

A disturbing connection between Mark Foley and Dennis Hastert has recently been discovered in the form of photographs and films implicating Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert in similar and perhaps worse sexual abuse of teen boys.

According to sources, Hastert took great delight in forcing teen boys in his charge to dress in tight, form fitting clothes and hold each other in graphic sexual positions. Some reports indicate that the positions were often painful, and intended to force one of the boys to submit. Hastert apparently spent years forcing boys to perform this way, sometimes in front of an audience, filming and photographing the show.

Given Hastert's own backgound of abusing boys, it is perhaps no surprise that Hastert did not consider Foley's actions to be such a big deal, given that Foley was only emailing the boys, rather than forcing them to perform in such a graphic way. Photographs of Hastert in High School Year books as a "Wrestling Coach" confirm his role.

White House Spokesman Tony Snow was unavailable for comment.
