Republican Values
Yesterday I told you about the Wall Street Journal article that claimed that Duke Cunningham was probably getting prostitutes sent to him by MZM, Inc. Well Ken Silverstein over at Harper's Blog sheds some more light on the matter, and it's getting to be even more lurid then I thought.
It turns out that the Dukestir might not have been the only lawmaker receiving some special perks. Silverstein says he has "learned from a well-connected source that those under intense scrutiny by the FBI are current and former lawmakers on Defense and Intelligence comittees—including one person who now holds a powerful intelligence post."
Muckracker points out that Porter Goss was on the intelligence committee, and I would say he has a "powerful intelligence post" considering he is the current Director of the CIA.
It's possible that the current director of the CIA is being investigated by Federal Prosecutors.
And it gets even better than that....The San Diego Union Tribune (MZM is located in San Diego, and it was also Cunningham's district) is now reporting "People who were present at the games said one of the regular players was Kyle Dustin “Dusty” Foggo, who has been Wilkes' best friend since the two attended junior high school in Chula Vista in the late 1960s. In October, Foggo was named the CIA's executive director – the agency's third-highest position."
The number one guy at CIA and now the number three guy are being drawn into Cunnigham's corruption (what's up with the number two guy, do you think he feels left out?).
So it seems that the reason they haven't caught Osama yet is because they're too tired and sore in the morning.
But I here what you're saying: Where's the proof? How do we know this is true? If only there were pictures!!
Well...Silversteing at Harper's blog goes on to say "Apparently photographs were taken, and investigators are anxiously procuring copies. "
I can't wait! I assure you that those pictures will be front and center right here once they are released. Keep your fingers crossed.
UPDATE:
Last night on MSNBC's Scarborough Country Dean Calbreath (San Diego Union Tribune) claims that word on the street is that "as many as a half a dozen” Congressmen could be drawn into this prostitution scandal. ThinkProgress has the transcript and the video.
This could quickly become the biggest political story of the year.
