Rep. Kolbe accused of "fawning" pages

There is more than just one sicko Republican Congressman.  Only, this one, Rep. Jim Kolbe (R-AZ), is retiring anyway.  ABC News reports on the ongoing investigation:

A source close to former House Clerk Jeff Trandahl told ABC Newsthat Arizona Congressman Jim Kolbe (R-Ariz.) was one of a small numberof "problem members" of Congress who page program supervisorscomplained spent too much time socializing with pages, taking them todinner or sporting events outside of official duties.

Mark Foley was also on the list.

The source said Trandahl frequently cautioned both congressmen that"adults should hang out with adults, pages should hang out with pages,"a message Trandahl also conveyed to pages during their orientation.

Kolbe was also asked by reporters to respond to reports that theU.S. Attorney in Phoenix has opened a preliminary inquiry into a 1996camping trip Kolbe took with two high school boys, both former pages,following a report by MSNBC that one adult member of the trip was"creeped out" by "fawning, petting and touching" on the arms, shouldersand back of one of the teenagers by Kolbe.

I don't think I ever want to ever hear the word "fawning" again!  Until now, that was just a character (Mr. Tumnus) from Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe.  Now I'm scarred for life!

Something is not right here though.  Who are the other "problem members" of Congress?  Who were the program supervisors and why did they not do anything about it?  If they did, which is what I suspect, then who did they tell and when?  Interestingly, Kolbe, even though he was on that list, knew about the Foley emails as early as the year 2000.  That means other people besides the program supervisors were aware of it.
