What did Sue Kelly know about the Mark Foley cover-up?
A short time ago, John Hall urged Sue Kelly to come clean about her time as Chair of the House Page Board:
Lots of questions are beginning to surface about exactly what Kelly, who depending on the source either served as Page Board Chair in the 106th-108th Congresses (2000-2004) (see this report (pdf)) or was there from 1999 to 2001.
Two versions of this AP story (early and later) also give slightly different dates.
And then there's the question of her official spokesman, Kevin Callahan, sounding more than a bit shrill when a THR reporter began asking some questions for this article. Said Callahan: ""I don't see where you're going with this, other than on some witch hunt," Callahan told the Times Herald-Record. "I don't see what you're trying to do other than connect her to a sick man. All I can tell you is that no incidents came to her attention while she was chair."
Was Kelly part of the Foley cover-up? Why not give her office a call and ask: 202.225.5441 in DC or 845.291.4100 (Orange County), 845.897.5200 (Dutchess County) or 914.962.0761 in Westchester. Don't we deserve to know the truth about what Kelly knew and whether she was doing her job protecting our children?
John Hall Questions Sue Kelly About Scandal
BEACON, NY Democratic congressional nominee John Hall today called on Rep. Sue Kelly to answer relevant questions about the unfolding scandal regarding Rep. Mark Foley and the sexually explicit messages he exchanged with teenaged congressional pages. "It is critical for Rep. Kelly to be as forthcoming as possible about her time as the Chair of the Page Board," said Hall. Rep. Foleys perverse actions may have taken place under Sue Kellys watch. When it seems that so many others knew of Foleys lewd and entirely inappropriate behavior, why didnt Sue Kelly? And if she did know, why didnt she do anything to protect these children?

The report that 19th district dude lists above is an updated version of the same report we included in the post above. While it's possible that the CRS got the dates wrong, clearly Kelly has some 'splaining to do.
