Former CIA official indicted for accepting bribes of ’sexual companionship.’»

AP reports that former #3 official at the CIA, Kyle “Dusty” Foggo, is facing a new indictment in the ethics scandal involving former congressman Randy “Duke” Cunningham. The new indictment alleges that Foggo “received bribes in the form of ‘sexual companionship‘” in exchange for helping friend Brent Wilkes get multimillion-dollar contracts from the CIA. Allegations that Foggo received the “enrichment of a mistress,” however, were not “detailed in the indictment.”

1. Guys are just too easy.

It would take a lot more than that to bribe a woman.

3. Stupid guys are.

2. He probably patterned his CIA career on that of another famous spy, James Bond...

Now if that's not a TV sit-com waiting to happen!

5. Republicans abide by their culture of corruption! That's why Brent Wilkes...

... carries this:

The Poontang Express Card!

Accepted by more escort services, coffee girls and massage therapists than any other card in the Beltway. Endorsed by Newt Gingrich!

The Poontang Express Card. Don't leave the RNC without it!

6. Well it's about damn time....

I've been reading about this character here at DU for a couplea years already!

7. Too bad we can't ask the DC Madame about this.

Perhaps her escorts' services may've been rendered in this area.

8. Larry Johnson weighs in... no matter your views on him, it's a must-read!

CIA Sex Gets Dusty

By Larry Johnson

For those of you tired of the political back-and-forth of the Clinton/Obama slugfest, here is a diversion. Sexscapades and the CIA.

Our story starts with Kyle “Dusty” Foggo. The former Executive Director of the CIA, who was fired and indicted more than a year ago, was hit last week with a super-ceding indictment accusing him of influence peddling at the CIA. Boy, is it juicy. If this was a movie it would be rated R. The question is not, “Who did Dusty tick off?” Nope. The real question, “Who didn’t he anger?” The line to smack him upside the head stretches around the block.

I first wrote about this back in January 2006. Looks like I was right (note to those of you doubting the Michelle Obama tape, here’s another case where some doubted what I was being told).

So what is going on now?

I know there are a lot of DUers miffed at Larry for his incessant Obama-bashing, but by all means and enjoy a give this one a read and enjoy your minimum daily adult requirement of schadenfreude.

9. Doesn't the Bush administration just have the worst luck?

All these guys indicted, convicted, leaving under suspicious circumstances, and outright criminality? Of course, it can't be because Bush is a criminal; he's such a good, Christian man you'd like to have a beer with. Darn the luck!

10. 'not detailed in the indictment'?

What???????? I want details. Where the fuck is Ken Star????? Let's drag out every flick of the tongue, every DNA stain we can find. Isn't that how it's done when it comes to, Republican, details? The public is clamoring to know if any cigars were involved.
