Watchdog Group Disputes FBI’s Claims on E-Mails
By Dan Eggen
Friday, October 6, 2006; Page A04The watchdog group that first provided the FBI with suspicious e-mails from then-Rep. Mark Foley (R-Fla.) said yesterday that FBI and Justice Department officials are attempting to cover up their inaction in the case by making false claims about the group….
CREW held a news conference Monday to announce that in July it had provided the FBI suspicious e-mails between Foley and a former House page. The group criticized the bureau for not taking more aggressive action and asked Justice Department Inspector General Glenn A. Fine to investigate the FBI’s handling of the case.
Law enforcement officials said then that the e-mails did not provide enough evidence of a possible crime to warrant a full investigation. In the e-mails, Foley praises the physical attributes of one page and asks another teenager for his picture.
In subsequent days, unidentified Justice and FBI officials told reporters that the e-mails provided by CREW were heavily redacted and that the group refused to provide unedited versions to the FBI. One law enforcement official — speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation — also told The Washington Post the FBI believed that CREW may have received the e-mails as early as April and that the group refused to tell the FBI how they were obtained.
Melanie Sloan, CREW’s executive director, said copies of the original e-mails she sent to an FBI agent show those assertions to be wrong. Sloan said the agent called to confirm receipt of the e-mails and to ask if one of the parties was Foley.
Sloan said the group sent unedited e-mails to the FBI because "we wanted them to commence an investigation. We’re sort of outraged that they’re saying anything differently." The group has asked Fine’s office to look into the FBI’s assertions.
Justice Department spokesman Brian Roehrkasse declined to comment on that issue but defended the FBI’s handling of the original e-mails: "The e-mails, while inappropriate, did not contain a criminal predicate to allow the FBI to move forward in an investigation."
Notice this is page A04. Not the front page.
… [T]he FBI believed that CREW may have received the e-mails as early as April and that the group refused to tell the FBI how they were obtained.
This how this timing tracks with Michael Rogers’ posted threat about outing Foley back in March. It looks like both he and CREW waited to release their heavy artillery until it could do the most damage.
As to CREW’s latest claims, there is nothing in the emails that would or should trigger an FBI investigation. If there is, perhaps Ms. Sloan could point it out.
Of course if the FBI had commenced an investigation based on these innocuous emails, the Soros CREW team would have been the first to howl about a "homophobic witch hunt."

“Associated Press
Pelosi Says She Would Drain GOP ‘Swamp’
By DAVID ESPO , 10.06.2006, 01:23 PM
Franklin Roosevelt had his first hundred days. House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi is thinking 100 hours. Time enough, she says, to begin to “drain the swamp” after more than a decade of Republican rule.
As in the first 100 hours the House meets after Democrats - in her fondest wish - win control in the Nov. 7 midterm elections and Pelosi takes the gavel as the first Madam Speaker in history.
Day One: Put new rules in place to “break the link between lobbyists and legislation.”
Day Two: Enact all the recommendations made by the commission that investigated the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
Time remaining until 100 hours: Raise the minimum wage to $7.25 an hour, maybe in one step. Cut the interest rate on student loans in half. Allow the government to negotiate directly with the pharmaceutical companies for lower drug prices for Medicare patients.
Broaden the types of stem cell research allowed with federal funds - “I hope with a veto-proof majority,” she added in an Associated Press interview Thursday.
All the days after that: “Pay as you go,” meaning no increasing the deficit, whether the issue is middle class tax relief, health care or some other priority.
To do that, she said, Bush-era tax cuts would have to be rolled back for those above “a certain level.”

Is there anyone in Congress whose viewpoint is more simplistic than Nancy Pelosi’s?
October 6th, 2006 at 2:11 pm
It is amazing she can still talk with skin stretched that tight.
October 6th, 2006 at 2:37 pm
cko1986, yes there’s about 450 simplistic but it sometimes varies issue to issue.
October 6th, 2006 at 3:49 pm
OK well what about the fact that the deficit is actually going down due to increased revenues due to….AHEM…listen up you democrat idiots….BUSH’s TAX CUTS. TADA!!!! Funny how that works isn’t it? Of course that’s what economic theory said would happen!

GG,
What about the fact you broke your finger pulling your derringer from your garter?

Foleygate Revelations…
Hastert is sticking to the line that he’s done nothing wrong in respect to how he’s handled the Foleygate situation. He’s going to go down fighting ……

In his dreams. I do love a conservative man (they are so rare in these parts that they are worth their weight in platinum) however, I can’t keep track of my keys and cell phone. I think a derringer is the last thing I need, unless I can attach it to my key chain. The finger breaking? Softball. I knew I wasn’t athletic.
The hypocracy of these people is more than astounding. They should all win the academy award for their faked outrage.

Omigosh, where are the censors when needed, Steve? That woman (?) really, really, really is a 3-bagger. At least. As a liberal, she is too busy trying to screw people that she doesn’t have time or interest enough to procreate, right?

Too late Wampaku40, SanFranNan has five children, but I wouldn’t hold that against them. They didn’t have a choice. :o)

Gila, Yeah, I know about Pelosi and the wonders of plastic surgery. Perhaps this woman (who was once a man? ugh) should get Nancy’s doctor’s name?
Not meaning to be cruel, really, but I could not even read the article I was so turned off by the picture…..
October 6th, 2006 at 5:12 pm
My bad Wamp, I thought you were referring to “Plastic Pelosi” in the first place. Ooops, I see now that you were referring to Ms. Sloan above. Perhaps she’s related to SanFranNan?

Some resemblance there. If I had a dog that ugly, I’d shave his…..well, you know the rest

Soros’sthugs.
I’m betting more democrats than Republicans will be swept up in this “scandal” before all is said and done.
October 6th, 2006 at 6:47 pm
The media have their collective teeth sunk firmly into this story gnawing on it through the mid-terms.
No damn wonder SanFranNan is vehemently opposed to Louis Freeh heading up an independent investigation.
