John Aravosis And Crew And Foley Emails

John Aravosis is yapping up a storm, and letting out details he doesn’t quite comprehend are (a) not common knowledge and (b) implicate him as working to orchestrate Foleygate in the media. It is important to note all the activity in July of 2006 regarding the non-salacious emails between Foley and a Page from Louisianna (aka, the LA Page). I have done numerous posts on these emails (the last one here with back referencing links). Reader TopSecretK9 as reminded me of this Aravosis comment when he admitted in October that he had the Foley Emails in July and mentioned he had done nothing after talking to CREW. She found this recent Aravosis post which tipped some more information out:

When I received the Foley emails this past July, had I been warned two or three years ago that Foley was stalking pages, I’d have turned the emails over to the FBI myself, not waiting for CREW to do it (which was shortly after I received them anyway)

CREW's Melanie Sloan used to work for Biden and well, Biden has this little thing about holding talks with foreign leaders about having President Bush removed from office :

* Joseph Biden : CREW has been active only since February [2003] , so its profile is still relatively low. Yet Republicans detect a strong Democratic orientation.[Melanie] Sloan, most recently an assistant U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, is a former aide to Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del.; then-Rep.

In 1993, Ms. Sloan served as Nominations Counsel to the Senate Judiciary Committee, under then Chairman, Senator Joe Biden, where she researched the backgrounds of nominees to high level Department of Justice positions and to the federal courts. --------11 posted on 01/28/2004 10:54:52 AM PST by jimbo123 )

NOVEMBER late - early DECEMBER 2003 : (JOE BIDEN MEETS WITH FRENCH LEADER CHIRAC) Is he saying that Joe Biden is going around the world talking to world leaders about getting Bush out of office?
Joe Biden had a private meeting with Chriac back in late Nov, early Dec. I made some posts about it then.

Someone needs to file a FOIA on CREW:

CREW's executive director Melanie Sloan stated "Despite evidence to the contrary, the Bush Administration has repeatedly claimed that it has nothing to do with SBVT or its ads. If this is true, then the White House should have no qualms about releasing information regarding any contacts between White House officials and those connected with SBVT."

[Was Biden in Europe for the Peace Fest held in Geneva Switzerland at that time? Wonder if he also met with Soros or Rich and picked up any cash there?]

NOVEMBER end - DECEMBER 2003 : (GENEVA, SWITZERLAND : "GENEVA PEACE FEST" TALKS ON MIDEAST PEACE-- See RICHARD REYFUSS & JIMMY CARTER- [Did BIDEN visit here, too?) A familiar roster of revered retirees, unemployables and butt-of-the-joke losers - plus an Oscar-winner who undisputedly did not deserve that honor - gathered in Geneva this week to talk to themselves. The subject of the confab was Mideast peace. Easy to get. Easy to keep. Golly, why didn't someone think of this before? So what if generations of politicians, diplomats and religious leaders have tried and failed to broker a permanent end to hostilities?
You know the planet is in capable hands when the master of ceremonies of foreign relations, lured from semi-retirement to star in the Geneva Peace Fest, is none other than Richard Dreyfuss - the hack who beat Richard Burton as best actor for his role in 1977's "The Goodbye Girl," before graduating to play Scoop the Snowman in "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and the Island of Misfit Toys."
Dreyfuss was joined in Geneva by ex-President Jimmy Carter, a Nobel Peace Prize winner who these days also suffers from a serious excess of free time.
...But it was Carter, who's hidden his sharp teeth behind an aw-shucks smirk for far more years than he allowed American hostages to be held captive in Iran, who gave voice to the true message behind the so-called "Geneva Initiative."
Carter put the blame for Mideast terrorism - and that would include attacks such as those on the World Trade Center and Pentagon - not on the shoulders of the Islamofascists. He unequivocally blamed President Bush.
"The present administration in Washington has been invariably supportive of Israel, and the well-being of the Palestinian people has been ignored or relegated to secondary importance," Carter declared. "Without a resurrection of strong and unbiased American influence, Israeli and Palestinian extremists will prevail.
"There is no doubt that the lack of real effort to resolve the Palestinian issue is a primary source of anti-American sentiment through the Middle East and a major incentive for terrorist activity."
Carter, who failed at achieving peace, joins the Hollywood chorus that looks the other way at Islamic atrocities, while advancing the fiction that selling out Israel will stop the carnage. And now he has an audience.

CREW is one of the nine member groups in the Congressional Ethics Coalition and the only one which refused to name their boardmembers to the publications The Hill in 2005. I did find one mention from a 2003 posting that mentioned 3 boardmembers, though I'm not sure if there are more or if the lineup has changed since then- perhaps they have new ones on their web now - I haven't been to their site in a while :

CREW's three board members are Mark Penn, President Clinton's former pollster; Daniel Berger, a trial lawyer from Philadelphia and a Clinton fundraiser; and Louis Mayberg, the president of a mutual fund company. ...10 posted on 01/28/2004 10:52:10 AM PST by jimbo123 --http://www.citizensforethics.org/news/20030719_natljrnl.php via 10 posted on 01/28/2004 10:52:10 AM PST by jimbo12

CREW's boardmember Daniel Berger donated $100,000 to the group "America Coming Together" in May 2004 and $13,750 to the Democrat Senatorial Campaign Committee in June 2004 according to The Hill in March 30, 2005

"America Coming Together" was launched in July 2003. It is of course, a Soros-backed part of what is nicknamed "The Shadow Party." [See Horowitz's articles on the Shadow Party.]

ACT is simply one of 33 member organizations under the umbrella of Cecile Richards’ group "America Votes"

YEP- they went after the Swifties in 2004 in spite of their own org being even more in collusion with their candidate Kerry- their campaign seems to consist of an endless litany of FOIA and lawsuits or just threats of lawsuits which are apparently intended to do little more than gather information for their databases and to create a sense of "where there's smoke, there's fire" or in other words, "where there's lawsuits there is guilt." They don't even have to pretend to have valid reasons for any attack- the attack itself is the gob of mud they want to tag people and groups with- if they get lucky and can make a case so much the better but the point isn't to actually find corruption. NO need for that when all they have to do is IMPLY it.

Foleygate Timeline

**********************************

More Updates Regarding Email Timeline and House Staff Names

Updates will be in bold as more details come in

Here is a fairly complete and accurate timeline on Foleygate compiled by AP. The key missing elements are the claims by Aravosis and Rogers on when they were attmepting to basically blackmail Fordham and when they got Fordham to ‘out’ Foley (their claims Fordham denies). We also need to add the July 28th appearance of the mystery website and the KoS commenter WHintern’s postings about Foley. So here is the more complete version from sources around the net such as Gateway Pundit and Mac Ranger and Radar On Line [additions from blog reporting entries and modifications in italics:

If I missed some key event please let me know in the comments and I will add it. I believe there were more times when Rogers gloated. But one can see there was a lot of activity right around the time the story was timed to break - and before it did so!

ACT- now supposedly defunct so some other group is playing its role somewhere- ACT provided the communications network for the Soros political apparatus.

Too bad there wasn't a big EMP [electro magnetic pulse] to throw at them- our little pajama clad EMPs will have to do.

*ACT: Not only do its canvassers register voters, but they compile extensive personal dossiers on them – including such private information as their drivers’ license numbers, social security numbers, and favored candidates in the election – information which can be retrieved on demand through canvassers’ hand-held Palm Pilots. Follow-up is key to ACT’s get-out-the-vote  strategy. According to ACT’s Web site, its canvassers extract firm “promises” from individual voters, then follow up to make sure that “promises are kept.” ACT’s Web site does not explain precisely how its canvassers will enforce the “promises” they exact. However, the menacing demeanor of at least some ACT canvassers will no doubt prove motivating to many voters. On June 23, 2004, the Associated Press revealed that an undetermined number of ACT’s fulltime canvassers were felons, convicted for crimes that include burglary, assault and sex offenses.[7]------- See "The Shadow Party: Part II Continued 2," By David Horowitz and Richard Poe, FrontPageMagazine.com, October 7, 2004 http://www.frontpagemag.com/articles/readarticle.asp?ID=15411&p=1

Wonder who maintains ACT's databases now?

ACT was launched by Soros-connected Steve Rosenthal; it went defunct in August 2005 when Soros pulled the money after Kerry's loss.
