Seriously. I can't believe there are still people out there who would be shocked that some politicians are dirtbags.

At least he used a hotel, remember Wilber Mills (D) splashing with a hooker in a public fountain?

So sad and unnecessary. He was a great patriot and pilot. Does anything good ever happen in places named Watergate?

This sounds like another one of those Democrat led investigations that will come back to bite them.

The media and the liberals will use this as a smokescreen to get the illegal alien issue off the tube.

March 3, 2006 A stunning investigation of bribery and corruption in Congress has spread to the CIA, ABC News has learned.
The CIA inspector general has opened an investigation into the spy agency's executive director, Kyle "Dusty" Foggo, and his connections to two defense contractors accused of bribing a member of Congress and Pentagon officials.
The CIA released an official statement on the matter to ABC News, saying: "It is standard practice for CIA's Office of Inspector General an aggressive, independent watchdog to look into assertions that mention agency officers. That should in no way be seen as lending credibility to any allegation.
"Mr. Foggo has overseen many contracts in his decades of public service. He reaffirms that they were properly awarded and administered."
The CIA said Foggo, the No. 3 official at the CIA, would have no further comment. He will remain in his post at the CIA during the investigation, according to officials.
Two former CIA officials told ABC News that Foggo oversaw contracts involving at least one of the companies accused of paying bribes to Congressman Randall "Duke" Cunningham. The story was first reported by Newsweek magazine.

Does anything good happen at The Watergate? Yes, Condi Rice lives there.
And I think the Doles live there too.

This is hardly surprising. Our current Washington lawmakers are incapable of rational behavior. They all need to go on both sides of the aisle.

This is all part of the accusation that Portor Goss indulged in the hired help.

He was a great patriot and pilotPilot maybe, but he started trying to line his pockets even before he left the Navy. It was on a smaller scale, but if he hadn't been "Duke" somebody would have taken him down for his antics.
The guy is patently dishonest, and sold out America's military to the highest bidding briber.

Sounds like back to the days of William Jefferson "Slick Willie" "Bill" Clinton, first black president of the United States, first gigolo ever elected president of the United States, liar, thief, and rapist. Business as usual in Sodom on the Potomac.

I'd say that sums up the atmosphere there, for sure.

What's the big deal? It's just sex. Oh, a republican. I see why the big MSM play of the story. Here's a prediction: the story will remain in the forefront with an ever-changing series of headlines ... until the investigation ultimately finds a democRAT or two and it will suddenly fade into the barkground.
And BTW, looks like "Duke" not only had feet of clay but also ankles and legs. There but for the Grace of God and all that. We thank Cunningham for his Vietnam service but still hold him accountable for his actions after coming home. Kerry and McLame take note.
