Don't think about me. Don't turn your fire against me. Focus on the Democrats because remember, they're trying to take us down here.

There are people that try to tear us down. We are the insulation to protect this country about and if they get to me, looks like you know, they could affect our election as well.

If you let this thing spin out of control, Democrats are going to take back control of Congress and they're going to raise your taxes and grow the government.

There were others that had this information. Didn't come forward with it. I've asked for investigations both on the whole process. I've asked for Foley to be investigated, I've asked for investigations on who had this information because…

The instant messages reportedly between Congressman Foley and a former page, set in 2003 were vile and repulsive.

I have known him for all the years he has served in this House and he deceived me, too.

I have asked John Shimkus, who is the head of the Page Board, to look into this issue regarding Congressman Foley. We want to make sure that all our pages are safe and the page system is safe -- safe.

So, you know, they have blocked the legislation that we would like to finish.

Well, it hasn't been settled, but I think it gives us some time to take -- step back, take a breath, and then work out the problems.

My opinion is that they took the wrong path.

This is one of the leaks that come out to try to, you know, intimidate people. And we're just not going to be intimidated on it.

That gives us some time to step back and try to negotiate with the Department of Justice.
