DRIP, DRIP >> Rep. Kildee says "page matter" NEVER investigated Click her
News from Congressman Dale E. Kildee



Congressman Dale Kildee (D-MI), the Democratic Member of the House Page Board, released the following statement today:



"As the Democratic Member of the House Page Board, any statement by Mr. Reynolds or anyone else that the House Page Board ever investigated Mr. Foley is completely untrue.



"I was never informed of the allegations about Mr. Foley's inappropriate communications with a House Page and I was never involved in any inquiry into this matter.



"The first and only meeting of the House Page Board on this matter occurred on Friday, September 29 at approximately 6 p.m., after the allegations about Mr. Foley had become public."

1. Wow... the plot keeps thickening!
I looked around and just found that info you had on this site > http://www.themoderatevoice.com/posts/1159600743.shtml

Looks like it's hitting several sources on the AP too.

The GOP screwed themselves royally!

3. It is going to be a bit difficult for them to construct a story
when so many could have been, or should have been, in the loop. Now, they will have to admit they discussed Foley's problem with only Republicans present, since Congressman Kildee has come forward.

I wonder how many other committees had "meetings"--sans Democratic members--for the purpose of discussing problems with Republican members which needed to be covered up? Sure seems like I've read about quite a few meetings where Dems weren't told were taking place or were held late at night...again, sans Dems.

So much corruption, so little time.

4. Is anyone talking about the timing?
They've not only held back this information; they waited until Foley had voted for every one of their creepy bills before letting ABC release this scoop-delayed.

7. So now we know he's a cyberspace molester and condones torture.
Wow. Splendid little group of Congress-critters, those Repubs are. Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, doesn't it. x(

6. Glad Kildee's speaking out right away
closing up that avenue of "escape" for the enablers.
