Flashback: Watchdog Group Disputes FBI's Claims on E-Mails [CREW vs Mark Foley]
Washington Post ^ | Friday, October 6, 2006; | Washington Post

Posted on 09/21/2010 2:09:32 AM PDT by NoLibZone

The 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.

Law enforcement officials said the allegations by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) are without merit, and they stood by allegations that the group had refused to provide some information to the FBI.

The dispute is the latest controversy this week for CREW, a liberal-leaning group that has come under attack from House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.) and other Republicans because it has received money from a foundation funded by liberal financier George Soros.

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.

Soros’s CREW said Mark Foley was a pedophile and leaked emails to the press.

They really know how to place a shot, don’t they? and orchestrate it to maximum effect. I think they’re striking out on Christine O’Donnell, though. She’s had no power to abuse.

No...they are just trying to make her a “laughing stock” with her witchcraft comments.

Bid deal. Since they told us that snorting coke like their fearless leader has done and that it doesn’t matter because it was years ago, they lose with that argument.

I think the dynamic is a little different. Perhaps for us sophisticates, laughing stock is the target. But I really think they are trying to vote suppress by channeling the kind of aversion to witchcraft that was evident in the Proctor and Gamble moon campaign of twenty years ago; I think they see that as a fertile way of turning a segment of support off “down-state.” http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Religions/Wicca%20&%20Witchcraft/devil_companies.htm

CREW will be used in many of the races in which the Soros owned DNC are behind.
