All of Foley's Money

by Democraticavenger, Sat Sep 30, 2006 at 11:22:58 AM EST

This diary is an attempt to give a complete picture of who gave to Foley and also whom Foley gave to. It only includes those who are currently in elective office. I think it is incumbent on all members of Congress who want to remain on the right side of this should give all of the money Congressman Foley gave them to a worthy charity.

This election cycle

Republican Members of Congress who gave to Mark Foley
Deb Pyrce
Eric Cantor
Adam Putnam
Bill Thomas
Jim McCrey
Dave Camp
Ileana Ros-Lehtinen
Mike Oxley
Peter Sessions
Roy Blunt
Tom Reynolds*

*possible contribution came after knowledge of events.

Also of interest is the lack of donations from either Hastert or Boehner, this is odd because they have given to the overwhelming number of House Incumbents who are on the DCCC target list. Only Six other incumbents on either the Red to Blue or Emerging List got no check from either Hastert or Boehner. They are Jim Walsh, Peter King, John Hostettler, Pat Tiberi Frank Wolf and Tom Reynolds.

Re: All of Foley's Money (none / 0)

Where did this info come from? I'd love to be able to cite it in a LTE against Nancy Johnson (R-Pharma, er, R-CT-05)!

Re: All of Foley's Money (none / 0)

This is the Florida Republican Leadership PAC, not Foley or Foley's "Friends of Mark Foley" committee. In other words, there is no real money link between Foley and Gerlach unless I am missing something.

Re: Thanks (none / 0)

I cross-posted and linked your diary over at our site, KeystonePolitics.com, because of the involvement of Gerlach and Weldon. Interestingly, the local teacher's union endorsed Gerlach. I hope after seeing he took money from Foley, they'll change their mind since what teacher wants to support a person who does the kind of things Foley
did to kids.

Re: All of Foley's Money (none / 0)

Could this information not be sent directly to all the Dem candidates running against these people? Or can we trust that they will all figure it out? Reynolds and Hastert, I assume, are already vulnerable, but these donations are a clear link, clear enough to put them on record in favour of ousting Hastert, et al, for example. Get everyone running for cover.

How About the Money Foley GOT? (none / 0)

from donors like Chairman of the National Republican Campaign Committee, Tom Reynolds? And that was after the fact Reynolds knew of Foley's e-mails and IMs.

Re: All of Foley's Money (none / 0)

You left off an important one. According to open secrets he donated $500.00 from his PAC to Charlie Crist's campaign for Florida governor. I also have seen on the net that Foley and Crist were roommates when they were both in Florida Legislature. Anyone have any more info on that?
