Former Florida congressman Mark Foley had cybersex while awaiting a vote on the House floor, ABC's Brian Ross and Maddy Sauer report. Foley, who resigned last Friday when it was revealed that he had exchanged explicit e-mails with an underage male page, interrupted a vote on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives in 2003 to engage in cyber sex with a high school student who had served as a congressional page, according to new Internet instant messages provided to ABC News by former pages.

ABC News now has obtained 52 separate instant message exchanges, which former pages say were sent by Foley, who used the screen name Maf54, at different times to two boys under the age of 18. The following message was dated April 2003, at approximately 7 p.m., according to the message time stamp:

Maf54: I miss you

Teen: ya me too

Maf54: we are still voting

Maf54: you miss me too

The exchange continues in which Foley and the teen both appear to describe having sexual climaxes.

Maf54: ok..i better go vote..did you know you would have this effect on me

Teen: lol I guessed

Teen: ya go vote...I don't want to keep you from doing our job

Maf54: can I have a good kiss goodnight

Teen: :-*

Teen:

According to another message, Foley also invited the teen and a friend to come to his house near Capitol Hill so they could drink alcoholic beverages:

Teen: are you going to be in town over the veterans day weekend

Maf54: I may be now that your coming

Maf54: who you coming to visit

Teen: haha good stuff

Teen: umm no one really

Maf54: we will be adjourned ny then

Teen: oh good

Maf54: by

Maf54: then we can have a few drinks

Maf54: lol

Teen: yes yes ;-)

Maf54: your not old enough to drink

Teen: shhh...

Maf54: ok

Teen: that's not what my ID says

Teen: lol

Maf54: ok

Teen: I probably shouldn't be telling you that huh

Maf54: we may need to drink at my house so we don't get busted
