Porter Goss, Dusty Foggo, "Nine Fingers" Bassett, and an unnamed undercover agent! The unnamed agent has blown his cover by hanging out with hookers, so no reason for him not to be named! Valerie Plame Wilson was outed by the Bush Regime for political revenge, so the undercover CIA pervert should be outed by the press too!

It never stops, and it won't stop until the US government becomes accountable. It will probably take a hard fall before that happens. The US government is corrupt. When wasn’t it?

Mr. Georges was not just the best English teacher any of us ever had. He was a tough combat veteran, athlete, rugged physical presence and disciplinarian. He was also warm, sensitive and reflective — a lover of the arts with deep spiritual convictions. He was all this without the self-absorption, vanity, and self-promotion we see in so many supposedly great and important people. In short, Mr. Georges was an ideal role model for a teenage boy who was always sizing up the men around him, consciously or subconsciously wondering what kind of man he could and should become. My world got vastly bigger after high school, but Mr. Georges remains a towering figure for me, and a model of what a man should be.
