4. It's hard to find information on these people
I had nothing better to do at work today and tried to look for information on the Warren County Director Susan R. Johnson and Co-Director Sharon A. Fisher.

The odds of them being the same people are astronomical. I really wish I had access to Lexis-Nexis

I Yahooed "Susan R. Johnson" and I found this:

http://www.guide2womenleaders.com/governors2000.htm

2004- District Supervisor and Deputy High Representative Susan R. Johnson, Brcko  (Bosnia and Hercegovina)
An US diplomat she was Senior Advisor to the Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Interim Director for Civil Affairs in the Coalition Provisional Authority in Baghdad. She was appointed by the The High Representative, Paddy Ashdown.


Don't you find this weird? Iraq? And does this mean she's currently in Brcko since the date is 2004? I'm sure there are a ton of Susan Johnsons, but fewer Susan R. Johnsons

Then I looked up Sharon A. Fisher to come upon this web page

http://www.namebase.org/cgi-bin/nb01?Na=fisher%2C+sharon

The way I understand it a Sharon Fisher was part of a mailing list published by or about these folks in 1984

" Council for National Policy, 732 North Boulevard, Baton Rouge LA 70802 (address was current as of 1984).

Board of Governors Mailing List. 1984.

This "confidential" mailing list contains about 360 names of principals, along with their address, home and office numbers, spouse's name, and name of a staff contact.

Years ago the John Birch Society developed the view that the Council on Foreign Relations, dominated by Rockefeller's money and Kissinger's politics, was too soft on the cold war. Today many conservatives, from Birchers to Lyndon LaRouche, still see CFR as more or less part of the Soviet conspiracy. The Left, on the other hand, has always felt that CFR is an example of imperialism in the service of ruling class interests.

In 1981 the Hunt brothers and T.Cullen Davis founded the Council for National Policy as a counterweight to CFR. This was not a collection of right-wing nuts, but rather the cream of the wealthy activist Right in America. Forget about trying to join either one -- both CNP and CFR are for elites only. It is unclear whether CNP is still active. The last time they were in the news was when Oliver North, first named by the media in 1985, was found on CNP's 1984 confidential mailing list."

Again, there are a ton of Sharon FIshers that exist and I did find a Sharon Fisher who is a republican alderman for the Village of Creola in Louisiana (The CNP is also based in LA)

That's as far as I can get without access to something better than google/yahoo/netscape search engines. And I don't have a clue about investigation techniques. I seriously doubt if there are any connections but it couldn't hurt to look.
