Read the story. Graphic IM's. Kolbe saw them in 2000, and just told Foley to stop. He didn't tell the leadership. Kolbe has known for six years. He didn't tell Delay or Hastert at the time.
Nope - re-read it. Still not clear.
re-read the story
It says INTERNET messages not INSTANT messages.
I suspect the Washington post is trying to confuse the public INTENTIONALLY
It is probably the emails NOT the INSTANT messages.
We have to be VERY careful with this media the next few days. Don't trust the MSM, they are trying to Goebles the story to morph emails into instant messages.
Aaaaaarg! Why are we allowing them to make this about "Who knew?" and "When?". No one ever pulls that ploy on them!
Kolbe is Gay...why would a STRAIGHT page go to a GAY ARIZONA Congressman about a Florida Gay's messages?? Why didn't he go to the leadership which would have been DEMOCRATS in LEADERSHIP at the time??

Kolbe was probably using the same pages.
