Press conference at 1:45
Ok, cool. Hate to sound uninteligent, but I'm not real informed/educated on the inner workings of the WH. I know the CIA reports to the WH, so they are "connected" in some ways.
All I can say, is I pray that the right people are put in place while Bush is in office. We HAVE to block the Dems from doing anything with our government or they'll ruin the US, imo.
Kristol agrees with me LOL!
This is not the ordferly manner we would expect.
Norah Odonnell, is indicating they are dumping bad news on a Friday so it will not get coverage and it is bad news for Bush. Also she indicated that prostitutes were involved in gambling parties at Watergate Hotel....
Who knows, the msm is going to have a field day.
Oh my, it is scary --- worse than I thought. If you read his article, he sounds like an anti-American, leftist lunatic!

Hmmmmm..... Good thinking for a Friday afternoon.
*** stars for your tag line
Well, if 43 wanted to replace Goss, all I can say is I hope the next director comes loaded for bear.
If for no OTHER REASON that Patrick, the WH should have waited with this announcement until next week!
Hookergate IS the reason. He's resigning effective immediately.
The voice of experience..Thank you..
Ok, heres my 2 cents. Goss was the bulldog Bad guy that beat up everyone in CIA to get the necessary changes regardless of how much hatred it generated for him. Now that it is done, he is out to allow the President to appoint someone who will be seen as the good cop after the bad, mean director that busted everyones butts.
What say you?
If he is personally tied to this hooker story, I can't imagine the president sitting with him there in the White House announcing the resignation.
Please understand that when you tell a bunch of guys not to talk about sex, that's all you're going to get from them for the next 3 hours.
Patrick Fitzgerald has managed to break open the whole can of worms
(thats a joke folks)
Bob Barr is Black?
Gee, I never noticed.
If Goss brought on the #3 guy, who is now involved in the hooker scandal, he woulds probably resign out of shame, not necessarily out of guilt. I can see what you're saying.
It does sound like it is related to something like Foggo/Cunningham/Hookergate.
Then again, it could also be some conflict between him and Negroponte with Goss bolting in anger instead of waiting for a smooth transition, with perhaps the Hookergate allegations a going-away smear job by the CIA's sedition wing to make political hay out of this.
I think it is something else...... What? Not sure....
I'm out of the loop--
What's Hookergate? The cliff Notes version please.
No thanks. It's stupid to hijack threads. I'll pass.
So is CNN.
