New House Page Sex Scandal: Oral Sex in the Page Dorm, Shoplifting at the Mall

Wow! A new sex scandal in Washington and it doesn't involve--that we know of--either former president Bill Clinton or Senator Larry Craig. This time it's unsupervised young people having sex with each other . . . but probably not in a way that best represents the United States Congress. Here's more from the Washington Post:

So much for reform of the House page program in the wake of the Mark Foley scandal. House teenage pages are so wild and unsupervised that two GOP members of Congress have resigned from the House Page Board, protesting that they were not informed of two pages caught shoplifting and two others busted for engaging in public oral sex.
One of the members who resigned, Rep. Ginny Brown-Waite of Florida, tells the Sleuth that she felt "very, very uncomfortable" both as a mother and a grandmother continuing to serve on a board she feels is inadequately supervised.
"I thought the Mark Foley incident was a wake-up call," Brown-Waite said, referring to the disgraced former GOP congressman from Florida who was caught sending sexually tawdry instant messages to male House pages. "Apparently it wasn't." The congresswoman added, "If I had a 16-year-old granddaughter, I wouldn't let her come up here. I would not let my 16-year-old grandson come up here." (The congresswoman does have a 16-year-old grandson.)
One of the incidents that bothered Brown-Waite involved what she called "inappropriate sexual indiscretions" between two teenaged pages. She would not elaborate, though she said other pages served as "enablers." A source familiar with the incident - which resulted in the expulsions of two pages - said one female page performed oral sex on a male page in the page dorm room as the other teenagers watched. "The enablers provided cover for them, the other pages were watching," the source said. According to Brown-Waite, the alleged public sexual indiscretions were "not an isolated incident." Two other pages were expelled for shoplifting. Brown-Waite and another source said one of the shoplifters was charged with a felony.
