Can't blame the guy. Everyone knows Cuban tranny refugee hookers are the best.

That's what USAID grant money is supposed to be used for, right?

The important thing is that the white house has shown a great deal of transparency and candor by providing all of the details of this affair. They've also shown a great deal of concision and editorial skills, by reducing it to under thirteen words.

All the monkeyshines your reading about today, these were all just older men trying to relieve their prostatitis. That's what it always is. It's a terrible affliction. You should pity them.

@DeliveryDevice: Yes, but only for poor hookers.

That's why they put the AID in USAID.

Twelve-year old boys can be hookers these days?

I'm guessing the WH aide dispensed the money to a qualified contractor regardless of party affiliation. That's grounds for dismissal right there. Either that or hookers.

Actually- the person was caught actually helping a brown person in an impoverished company and didn't funnel the money through Haliburton. That'll be the end of that!

I was hoping that the culprit would be Stephen Hadley. However, the aide is Felipe Sixto, a Special Assistant and Butler to the President. The charges stem from when Sixto worked in DC for the Center for a Free Cuba, an anti-Castro and pro-vivisection group, whose head is an alleged former CIA toad-eater/Alpha 66 member and short order cook Frank "Extra Sauce With That" Calzón.

Felipe Sixto (???)

Another in the long tradition of releasing bad news late on a Friday.

Is there like a que for this stuff?

"Dana, better hold back on that one until mid-afternoon on a Friday during a recess!"

Felipe Sixto, who was a special assistant to the president for intergovernmental affairs ...

This is getting a little too obvious.

AP is running a story. Needs to be sexed up, though.

USAID gives "a couple of million dollars a year" to a bunch of batshit-crazy anti-Castro Cubans. Who would have thought anything could go wrong?

LGN...well, not 'nowhere', just to this highly specific AP scoop:

AP News Alert

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Bush administration is proposing a sweeping overhaul of the way the nation's financial industry is regulated.

@Murph: Dana held back, but maybe Sixto didn't. Ay que amor.

@sluggo: But if he's pro-vivisection, what does he do with all the baby foreskins?

@sluggo: Oops, asked and answered. I predict Cub Scout souffle!

If you give the AID money straight to the hookers, then it helps grassroots people, and none is stolen by 3rd world bureaucrats!
