    “Foggo, has been under investigation by the FBI, IRS, Defense Criminal Investigative Service and the CIA’s inspector general”

    Ha, whats he missing, INS and ATF?

    Is the number of scandals and amount of corruption in this administration approaching U.S. Grant levels yet? That would be just another low marker that the Bush administration is limboing under.


  5. Badmoodman says:

    Raid? – - A bit over the top, isn’t it? Sounds like Elliot Ness busting in the door with an axe. I’m sure Foggo expected this and may have even known when they were going to knock on his door.

    Clearly, the Bush administration decided to implement Admiral John Poindexter’s bold idea of a Total Information Awareness program, even after Congress and the public broadly denounced the idea when it was first exposed back in 2002. Supposedly killed back then, the idea of monitoring everyone all the time was just too tempting to this control-freak administration, so they just shifted the plan out of the Pentagon and handed it to the NSA.

    Thirty years ago, the headline for our exposé was “At Pacific Telephone, Your Privacy Ain’t Worth a Nickel.” Now it appears the headline should read, “In Bush’s America, The Fourth Amendment Ain’t.”

    Back on topic.

    “The agency is cooperating fully with the Department of Justice and the FBI,” she said. “Agency leaders outside of the (inspector general’s office) were informed just prior to the execution of the search warrants, in keeping with standard law enforcement procedures.”

    SO if your an CIA Agent they have to get Warrants, and if your a SHEEPLE, screw you and your rights?


  7. Ugh says:

    But Goss resigned over a turf-war, remember that.


  8. Zookeeper says:

    I hope they were wearing rubber gloves.


  9. Will OBGYN for Food says:

    “Dusty” is a dog’s or a trucker’s name.


  10. just me says:

    Waited until Friday afternoon to do this…

    SURPRISE!!!!


  11. Will OBGYN for Food says:

    Rubber gloves…!


  12. dlet says:

    So this guys nickname is Dusty and the PR person for the HUD guy who doesn’t hire non-Bush lovers is named Dustee. Why are Republicans so dirty?


  13. Hamster Brain says:

    I wonder what the other Hegelian hand is hiding?
    FRIDAY
    Typical Bushops.
    Anyone check latest Bills? Laws? Appointments?


  14. Will OBGYN for Food says:

    Yeah, “Dusty” and “Dustee” are chick names.


  15. Hamster Brain says:

    Bush circuit court nominee rated ‘unqualified’ by ABA
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    [JURIST] A committee of the American Bar Association [group website] has voted unanimously that judicial nominee Michael B. Wallace [official profile] is “not qualified” [ratings, PDF] to sit on the US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit [official website]. Wallace, a Mississippi lawyer and former aide to US Sen. Trent Lott (R-MS) [official website], has garnered criticism from Democrats and the NAACP [advocacy website] among others for working to secure tax exemptions for the then-segregated Bob Jones University
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Maybe this????


  16. Keith H. says:

    They should be raiding the White House.
    You know . . . . find the WMD’s dipshit misplaced.


  17. Will OBGYN for Food says:

    Okay, “Dustee” is a white trash chick name…

    did you get a LOOK at the guy? never mind the suit…


  19. Krazny says:

    I have never heard of the Defense Criminal Investigative Service. I wonder if the RNC will pay his legal bills? Maybe Ken Star can defend him.


  20. katy says:

    then again – there’s dusty springfield: “i only want to be with you”, “wishin’ and hopin’”, the telling “son of a preacher man” and many more…
    yea – an exception to every rule…


  21. Brian says:

    What are they going to find, though? I would *hope* that senior CIA officials know how to destroy evidence (these guys are supposed to be good at “covert,” right?).

    Regardless, this is getting so good. Let’s just make sure we do our homework and get at least the House this fall. Don’t think it’s an automatic- it’s not.


  22. Will OBGYN for Food says:

    Okay, he looks like Will Sasso, who looks vaguely homosexual…


  23. jimb says:

    did you get a LOOK at the guy? never mind the suit…

    He looks like he should be wearing a plaid flannel shirt and a Peterbilt hat. You know those hats that truckers wear that are about six inches high?

    You have to remember that these guys are not CIA lifers. They didn’t get to the top by being good spooks and working up the ladder. They were placed there with no experience in the CIA.


  25. walter66 says:

    I wonder how much time Gonzolos at Justice gave him to clear anything incriminating out? Kinda reminds me of Meese giving Ollie North and Fawn Hall about 12 hours of un-fettered document destruction


  26. Krazny says:

    This should be watched closely. This could be very big, or at least I hope so. Maybe Foggo will be the rat that squeals and brings down the white house.


  27. Krazny says:

    I was reading an article on yahoo about Foggo’s home in San Diego being searched. It occured to me that Mighty Aphrodite is also in San Diego, and we haven’t seen many posts from her over the last couple of days. I wonder if her husband is actually Dusty Foggo?


  28. Marley, Brooklyn, NY says:

    HAHAHAHAHA!!!

    Mighty Asswipe is Foggo’s wife!
    Her husband is out playing poker all night while poking at hookers!

    No kidding she named herself after a the goddess of beauty, fertility, and sexual love!
    It sure didn’t help with Foggo’s mojo. She seems like she needs it bad!

    I love this site!


  29. katy says:

    no, aphro IS dusty foggo… makes more sense…


  30. Marie says:

    #16 hamster “maybe this?”
    Maybe you’re right. Wasn’t there a controversy about Bush and Bob Jones University in the first campaign?


  31. meg_mac says:

    Where is the Mighty Hypocrite??? Hiding ?? or just speechless??


  32. Krazny says:

    MA is busy trying to keep the CIA off the petunias.


  33. Jay Randal says:

    The FBI is all over the Republicans in San Diego in regard to the Cunningham/hookergate scandal! Rep. Jerry Lewis is under investigation, and Brent Wilkes the Defense lobbyist whore, and Kyle Dusty Foggo now too! Since Mighty Moron is also in San Diego, he is probably scared or tied into one of those guys > lol.


  34. SKdeA says:

    Not too many trolls today! Must be difficult for them to keep up the spin with so much scandal…


  35. Bush Bites says:

    WHY DO REPUBLICANS HATE AMERICA?????


  36. ciganina says:

    Odd thing to me in all of this – Why would Republicans go near the Watergate Complex? Do these people never ever learn?
