WASHINGTON - Arizona Rep. Jim Kolbe said Tuesday he told the House official in charge of the page program as early as 2001 about Rep. Mark Foley's "creepy" e-mail to a former page.
Kolbe, the only openly gay Republican in Congress, said a former page he had sponsored contacted his office to complain of e-mails from Foley and that he "passed along" the complaint to Foley, R-Fla., and then-House Clerk Jeff Trandahl. Kolbe said he did not take the matter to other lawmakers.
Elsewhere on Tuesday, House Speaker
Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., again said his staff aides acted appropriately last fall in handling information on Foley's conduct.Yahoo! News (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20061010/ap_on_go_co/congress_pages;_ylt=AjKdKEX5KbAsXXlbQLZCb72yFz4D;_ ylu=X3oDMTA2Z2szazkxBHNlYwN0bQ--)
