Kolbe v Kolbe Spokeswoman

Brian Zick

Paul Kiel at TPM Muckraker reports that "Rep. Jim Kolbe (R-AZ) released a statement giving his "best recollection" of the Foley incident back in 2000, that's at odds with key details of an earlier statement given by his own press secretary." Paul provides a copy of Kolbe's statement, and observes, "The congressman gave no explanation for why his version of events contradicts that of his spokeswoman."
