And speaking of the CIA...


Turns out they have even more problems than I thought.

I just found this little diddy in Newsweek. It's another one of those special conspiracies that map out like a Family Circus cartoon so see if you can follow it.

After Porter Goss took over the CIA he named a man named Kyle (Dusty) (Yeah, he was the guy on GI Joe. True story.) Foggo to act as the CIA executive director. Now Foggo, who had been a mid-level official, was now the 3rd man in charge.

With me so far? Ok, now it gets interesting.

Turns out that Foggo was old friends with a guy named Brent Wilkes. Wilkes was accused by Federal prosecutors (though not indicted) of participating in a scheme to bribe Randall (Duke) (No, he unfortunately was not a Joe) Cunningham (seen in photo), the former GOP Congressman who resigned his seat after pleading guilty to Federal Corruption and tax charges.

Ok you ask, so what does Foggo have to with all this?

Well it turns out that Wilkes ran a network of companies that did business with defense and intel companies, and according to Newsweek's sources Foggo's name has surfaced in their investigations, compelling the CIA to open its own investigation. Wilkes is also being looked at for corrupting unnamed Defense Department officials as well as part of a pay-for-government contracts scam.

DeLay and Abramoff. Foggo and Wilkes. You know if we could get like 3 more pairings we could make a TV show. It would be called Dancing with the Crooks.
