Do you know who is "in charge" (she says laughing hysterically) of the page program? Is it the clerk of something? Did I read that somewhere tonight? Or did you say it?

From the article you posted above: Forti said, however, that the matter did go before the House Page Board the three lawmakers and two House officials who oversee the pages.

Is this what you wanted?

From today's Miami Herald:

The chairman of the House Page Board, Rep. John Shimkus, R-Ill., released a statement saying he was made aware of the e-mail exchange in late 2005, investigated the matter and believed no impropriety had occurred. He said Foley told him he was a ''mentor'' to the page. Shimkus also said he and the House clerk told Foley to cease contact with the page anyhow, that Foley agreed to do so and that Shimkus heard no further complaints.

Shimkus said he now will investigate the matter anew: ``It has become clear . . . Congressman Foley was not honest about his conduct.''
