I stopped thinking microsoft a long time ago. So I didn't think to
restart KDE. But the fact is, nothing else worked. I did restart the
application after applying the new settings and it didn't work. As
donovan said, It was neccessary to restart kde after changing the
settings and clicking apply, to get the colors in emacs right again.
Why this is, is less important to me than the fact that it worked. Not
having emacs, halted my python programming in it's tracks. But thanks
for the input.

cheers,
