Foleygate May Turn Into CREWgate

Posted by AJStrata on October 5th, 2006

The FBI, which keeps meticulous records and has no reason to spin this mess, is now claiming that CREW had the emails as early as April and that they were so heavily redacted the FBI could not do much with them - so says the Washington Post:

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.

April! If CREW was so worried about the well being of these Pages why wait until July to release them to authorities if they had them in April. And as someoneMichael Barone pointed out tonight on Fox News, Crew could have provided the emails to Democrat members of the Page and Ethics Committees of the House - but they did not! Why? Why give useless versions only to the FBI in July?

What the Post is not reporting is CREW mentioned on CNN their source was a Hill Staffer. And how long did the Hill Staffer have these emails? Why is CREW obstructing the investigation?

But I thought the FBI could care less about the privacy of US citizens. Why not just break into the CREW office and steal the unredacted version?

Or just waterboard the staff at Crew?

I called my Congressman today and told his staffer that the only way I'd vote for another Republican was if they FOUGHT BACK against these smears. I was ranting and practically spitting like Chrissy Matthews and she was laughing so hard. Her only response after I thanked her was to thank me back....profusely.

I have a good feeling about this. I encourage all FReepers to do the same with their Congress critters. Tell them that if the game is being played in the gutter then they have to play in the gutter or they FORFEIT.

thanks for your # 5 very interesting!
I keep forgetting the name of the former page who ran the

House Page Alumni Association message board. The FBI needs to talk to that kid.

These people are all lawyers, congressional lawyers at that. They "should" know better. The FBI needs to fry these people.

Here's some page chatter about a TV project in 2004. Don't know if it means anything! It's posted by the Site Admin - "Loraditchm" (class of 2001-2002)

"I have recently recieved an interesting e-mail, and have been informed that a TV project is being developed that may in some way involve pages.

As part of that project, the authors have asked me to post a questionaire for them that hopefully everyone can fill out and return to them, and i have done so.

The file may be accessed here." [The "here" link for a questioneer did not work.]

Jan and Laura Greenwald are mentioned as the developers of the TV project.
