Porter Goss to resign as DCI

Recommended Posts

Director of Central Intelligence.

 

Well, I guess that's a pretty strong admission that Goss in fact did find himself knee deep in hookers from the Cunningham Watergate scandal. This could get ugly; there are three or four sitting Congressmen potentially involved in that as well.

WTF are you talking about?

You gotta link where he admits anything like that?

 

Maybe he will be indicted on the same day Rove is. :doublethumbsup:

"It's all about the Duke Cunningham scandal."

 

CIA Director Porter Goss abruptly resigned yesterday amid allegations that he and a top aide may have attended Watergate poker parties where bribes and prostitutes were provided to a corrupt congressman.

 

Kyle (Dusty) Foggo, the No. 3 official at the CIA, could soon be indicted in a widening FBI investigation of the parties thrown by defense contractor Brent Wilkes, named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the bribery conviction of former Rep. Randall (Duke) Cunningham, law enforcement sources said.

"It's all about the Duke Cunningham scandal," a senior law enforcement official told the Daily News in reference to Goss' resignation. Duke, a California Republican, was sentenced to more than eight years in prison after pleading guilty in November to taking $2.4 million in homes, yachts and other bribes in exchange for steering government contracts.

 

Goss' inability to handle the allegations swirling around Foggo prompted John Negroponte, the director of National Intelligence, who oversees all of the nation's spy agencies, to press for the CIA chief's ouster, the senior official said. The official said Goss is not an FBI target but "there is an impending indictment" of Foggo for steering defense contracts to his poker buddies.

 

When I said admission, I was referring to the White House--that Goss is involved in the scandal in some fashion, either directly or via his crony selection for #3, who very much DOES appear directly involved.
