BREAKING: Porter Goss Played More Than Cards
Porter Goss has just resigned as director of the CIA, and President Bush has accepted his resgination.
So why is Porter Goss leaving? Is it because of those torture allegations from last fall? Intelligence failures relating to Iraq? The recent scandals over CIA leaking?
Um, we don’t think so. We bet it has something to do with this — limos, and hookers, and other good stuff.
Bush: “Over the years, I’ve established a very close personal relationship with Porter.” Well, Mr. President, you weren’t the only one…
It’s hard out there for a john.
More TK.

Don't be surprised if this blog goes ..er..silent
Two words.
John Millis.
1) From the Washington Post, June 2000 at
http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn?pagename=article&...
-------------------
John I. Millis, staff director of the House Permanent Select Committee on
Intelligence and a former CIA operations officer, was found dead Sunday
night of an apparent gunshot wound in a Fairfax City motel, officials said
yesterday.
City police found Millis, 47, in a room at the Breezeway Motel, 10829 Lee
Hwy., after receiving a report that a guest there was threatening suicide.
Officers tried and failed to contact the room's occupant by telephone before
entering and finding his body in the bathroom. An investigation is
continuing.
U.S. Rep. Porter J. Goss (R-Fla.), chairman of the House Intelligence
Committee and Millis's boss, said in a statement that "this is tragic news
that stunned us all" and expressed "deep sympathy" to Millis's wife, Linda,
and their children. ...

excerpt:
---------------
The staff director of the House Intelligence Committee killed himself in a
seedy Fairfax, Va., motel. But there seems to be more to the story, and
those in the know just aren't talking....
... "Once entry was gained I noticed a gun box (empty) laying on the bed and
an opened box of shotgun shells on a table. A search of the room revealed a
white male laying in the bathtub. It was obvious the subject had died from
an apparent self-inflicted gun shot wound to the head," Poore wrote.

3) "Apparent self-inflicted " heh heh

It HAS to be the hookers. Bushies do not resign over something torture, cronyism, or incompetence. Actually, it must be more than simply hookers. Boy hookers, mayber.

Re John Millis, Porter Goss's dead Director of Staff,
reporters' interest in his death was allayed by rumors of "the love dares not be spoken"
From http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1571/is_30_16/a...
""The first indications of trouble in Millis' life came at the turn of the
year when his wife, who works at the CIA, reportedly contacted Tenet and
warned that her husband was behaving oddly, even leaving classified
documents strewn about their house and in the family car. Langley sources
say she also claimed her husband was having an affair -- with a man.
Tenet was concerned but brushed it aside," says a well-placed source who
spoke on the condition of anonymity. At Langley there was a feeling that the
agency shouldn't get drawn into what appeared to be the start of an ugly
marital breakup"

Don, are you sure that he wasn't really "killed in an apartment owned by Hillary Clinton and then dragged to Fort Marcy park?"*
* Rush Limbaugh offered this assertion in the 1990s about the death of Vince Foster, he said it would be announced later that day. It wasn't. It still hasn't been. It won't. I'm certain he was just joking. He's really funny, ask Dick Cohen.
Now back to the subject: Boy Hookers! Boy Hookers! What if it was Chez Bono? Or, maybe an illegal immigrant hooker? If this was 24 then Goss would have slept with a hooker who was really a spy. Hot.

Boy hookers, whom he tortured, then found cushy jobs leading divisions/branches of the CIA!

Nah. If Goss wants to sodomize someone, he just brings in minority Democrats on the Intelligence Oversight Committees.
Admittedly, he can't match Negroponte. Who just took that huge $15 BILLION FIA contract away from Boeing in Democrat Jane Harman's district and gave it to Lockheed Martin. Jane Harman is the Minority Chairman on the House Permanent and Select Committee on Intelligence. Anyone want to guess which pudgey Vice President had a wife on the Board of Directors of Lockheed from 1994 to the inaugural in 2001?
