Another GOP Rep. Implicated in Foleygate

Washington Post is running this tomorrow on the front page.
A Republican congressman knew of disgraced former representative Mark Foley's inappropriate Internet exchanges as far back as 2000 and personally confronted Foley about his communications.

A spokeswoman for Rep. Jim Kolbe (R-Ariz.) confirmed yesterday that a former page showed the congressman Internet messages that had made the youth feel uncomfortable with the direction Foley (R-Fla.) was taking their e-mail relationship.
This comes after a long weekend of Republicans blaming the coverup on Democrats on the talking head shows. The questions that still remain: Who else knew about this and will they be held accountable?
