Ex-Dem staffer behind get-Foley nysterious blog?

John Cook of Radar has put a name on the mysterious person who seems to have set up the bogus Stopsexpredators blog that was instrumental in outing Mark Foley in a premature October Surprise op. The Human Rights Campaign was quick to disavow and fire the (at the time) unnamed worker for it. But through research, Cook discovered that the only person who fit the description offered by HRC (incidentally, a Soros-funded operation) was Lane Hudson. There is no firm confirmation, but only one person meets the description.

And Lane Hudson turns out to have a history as a staffer for Democrat office holders!

Hudson, a onetime staffer to Sen. Fritz Hollings (D-SC) and former Democratic South Carolina Gov. Jim Hodges, is 29.

Calls to the HRC and to Hudson were not returned.

To repeat a demand of many Democrats about 911, “connect the dots!”

Update from Clarice Feldman:

per a researcher at Just One Minute:

Lane Hudson of SC is referenced in a 2003 Kerry speech as,

”...former Governor Jim Hodges of South Carolina, and his staffer Lane Hudson…”.

A Lane Hudson was also listed as staff in this report from the 2001-2002 Congress.

Lane Hudson is evidently on staff with HRC, or at least has an email address through them and organizes event(s) for them. Per Radar, this connection may now be defunct.   If I read the abstract on this (now expired) link, Lane Hudson of SC is 27 and in real estate.   sacbee.com—ElectionDelegate status: Congressional District … T. Lane Hudson , Charleston, S.C. , 27, real estate.  

I don’t know if this is the same Lane Hudson that is affiliated with HRC and hosted at least 2 HRC events in Michigan this week. If SC Hudson is a former staffer of the Dem governor, that would seem to indicate a possibility that he was also a Democrat Senate staffer in 2001-2002 and a Democrat delegate in 2004.   Is it possible that the “leaked emails” routed not through a former page but a Democratic staffer / operative who may also be a gay activist working for HRC?

oops…Link for the 2001-2002 Staff reference. You have to do a search and find,; it’s buried in a list.

Lane Hudson. Rock Hudson. It makes one wonder if Lane was the name given to him at birth. Willard (Bubba) Hudson must have been taken.

Foley scandal backfired and now many involved who thought they would be heroes are going back home to the swamps.

[Anti-Bubba182]

"Foley scandal backfired.."

That only applies if MSM or Drudge picks up the story. So far they have not. This item only appear in a few places.

I'm sure it will be all over "The Situation Room" when Wolfie is on the case......

Got to say I just love seeing those initials H R C, pretty funny how they fit the profile of a certain first senator.

Another Lane Hudson story with additional info.

[SmithL]

What did the Dems know, and when did they know it?

[Anti-Bubba182]

I guess a lot and from the beginning.

[Chode]

Re: [WI_Victory_04_Milwaukee] Need a Job Reference?
Thanks for calling me out!
No final word from HRC yet. I interviewed with the HR Director who immediately wanted me to mee with the political director and the VP for Communication and Strategy. They were time limited when we met, so the political director wants to have a third interview by phone. That has been a headache to get done because of all of the legislative activity before the 4th of July recess, the O'Connor retirement, and now, he says there is a rumor that Rhenquist will announce retirement today. DID YOU READ THAT LAST POINT??? How f****** scary would that be?
Anyway, so that's what is up with HRC. Phil Lader is helping me out with the job at the British Embassy as well as Citigroup's Washington Office, who has some great contacts there. So, somthing will shakeout. There are also a couple of leads in NYC.

[acapesket]

There's another Foley thread higher up on breaking news .. sorry I am html incapacitated!

[RegulatorCountry]

Phil Lader? As in founder of the "Renaissance Weekend?" Now there's a straight line to the other HRC, lol.

[Freedom is eternally right]

Yes, that Phil Lader.

Lane Hudson, former Democrat Staffer

I'll bet $50 Lane is a homosexual himself.

[SkyPilot]

Lane Hudson. Rock Hudson. It makes one wonder if Lane was the name given to him at birth.

I don't like what Lane did, but I sure hope the Democrat thugs and their friend in the mob do not take revenge out on him when it is discovered the manufactured Foley "scandal" backfired. Lane had two associates helpiing with the blog too.

If the mob gets them, they could be found face down in the Hudson.

[billhilly]

"..they could be found face down in the Hudson."

Probably nothing original there.

WOW....thanks for the ping. trying to catch up here(been out of town the last week). Where is the LSM on this story?

Ethics Report on Foley Not Expected Before Elections


http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10/27/AR2006102701501.html

Unbelievable! Looks like the only people the 'Ethics Committee' has looked at are Republicans!

From the article in the 'Compost'

"One witness said questions dwelled on meetings between Republican leadership aides, Foley and Foley's staff, and Trandahl.

Outside the committee room, House Republicans, including Hastert, have repeatedly suggested that Democrats should also be scrutinized to determine whether they were aware of Foley's sexually explicit instant messages and leaked them to the news media. But those messages were revealed by former pages only after ABC News published inappropriate but not sexual e-mails, and the committee has not pursued the matter, the witness said."

Go figure....(rolling eyes)

"Unbelievable! Looks like the only people the 'Ethics Committee' has looked at are Republicans!"

Best case scenario for such a thing:

Maybe the Republican leadership doesn't want to show their hand to some of the committee members....like what closets the Justice Department might be looking into.
