Uhhh, was that wrong?
The GOP House leadership learned of Rep. Mark Foley's penchant for underage gay sex emails months ago and did nothing.

House Majority Leader John Boehner told the Washington Post last night that he had learned this spring of some "contact" between Foley and a 16-year-old page. Boehner said he told House Speaker Denny Hastert, and that Hastert assured him "we're taking care of it."
But the repug-run House page board met with Foley in 2005 to investigate the 'inappropriate, sexually charged online exchanges.'
Foley: What are ya wearing?

Teen: Tshirt and shorts

Foley: Love to slip them off of ya.
Foley, before he resigned in disgrace, was chairman of the Missing and Exploited Children's Caucus.

Late last night, the House passed a resolution directing the ethics committee to begin an inquiry into Foley's behavior. The committee has 10 days to report back to the House. But when will Hastert and Boehner be investigated??
