We’re gonna be glued to the confirmation hearings. They’re gonna be great. We learned today that Hayden has a tenuous connection to MZM Inc., the contractors who bribed their way into Katherine Harris’ heart and the Cunningham suite of the Watergate. He’s up to his ass in the NSA scandal. He looks like George’s old boss Kruger from Seinfeld. MORE »

Our crazed loner brother has a fittingly spiteful and vitriolic Porter Goss poilitical obituary up, great reading while you’re waiting for someone to publish tomorrow’s stories on the resignation, which will either be earth-shattering or bland retellings of shit you’ve been reading on Wonkette (and TPM, Harper’s, etc.) for a week now.

The connection between Mitchell Wade and Porter Goss is so open and obvious that it’s ridiculous how long it took to be brought up. But we hear the Post has some sort of exclusive (whaddya you wanna bet it’ll mention Wade but not hookers) coming up tonight. We’re guessing it’ll be something like: “Porter Goss got lots of money from Brent Wilkes and then promoted his unqualified friend and refused to fire him,” which we already knew. If it’s about the Watergate (and Westin) cards-’n'-hookers parties, we’ll be fucking THRILLED. There’s always the chance that physical evidence linking Goss to the Watergate parties has turned up — like Ken Silverstein’s photos, for example. MORE »

Pete Hoekstra, chair of the House Intelligence Committee (and recipient of a wee bit of Brent Wilkes money), is not surprised that Duke Cunningham was partying with hookers at the Watergate on a shady defense contractor’s dime along with a number of other Congressmen. MORE »

CIA Executive Director/early-1930’s bluegrass superstar Kyle “Dusty” Foggo has admitted to joining the now infamous Watergate poker games with Randy “Duke” Cunningham, further proof that you just can’t trust anyone in Washington with a quote-marked nickname. But he doesn’t admit to playing with any hookers, according to the Wall Street Journal: MORE »
