Media: “whores” (online)
I’m just sort of wandering through here, but has anyone seen this NY Daily News thing yet? Bit different from yesterday’s coverage of l’affaire Goss.
CIA Director Porter Goss abruptly resigned yesterday amid allegations that he and a top aide may have attended Watergate poker parties where bribes and prostitutes were provided to a corrupt congressman.
Kyle (Dusty) Foggo, the No. 3 official at the CIA, could soon be indicted in a widening FBI investigation of the parties thrown by defense contractor Brent Wilkes, named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the bribery conviction of former Rep. Randall (Duke) Cunningham, law enforcement sources said.
A CIA spokeswoman said Foggo went to the lavish weekly hospitality-suite parties at the Watergate and Westin Grand hotels but “just for poker.”
Although mistakes were understandable, because the parties usually had liquor in front and poker in the rear, but sometimes the other way around.
[Former CIA operative Larry] Johnson vouched for the integrity of Foggo and Goss but said, “Dusty was a big poker player, and it’s my understanding that Porter Goss was also there [at Wilkes' parties] for poker. It’s going to be guilt by association.”
And it just got really hot and stuffy in there, and everybody took their clothes off, and that’s when Goss accidentally tipped over the giant vat of cocoa butter, and…
You know, this could all be cleared up by those photos that one keeps hearing about. Whether the hookers were male or female, I mean.

I’m new to your web site, Sadly No. Where is the “about” button on the site. I was recommended to it by Juan Cole, of whom I’m a big fan.

NY Daily News:
Goss’ tenure was marked by the resignations of several veteran operatives who viewed him as an amateur out of his depth.
D’ya think Goss is really “Gary Ruppert”?

About what is Sadly, No!? It aspires to satire, but mostly achieves mockery (of people who really have it coming.)

We usually just aim for mockery. Satire requires talent and hard work.

“because the parties usually had liquor in front and poker in the rear, but sometimes the other way around.”
I had my Beavis and Butthead moment of double entendre.

Actually, I’ve found that most of the denizens of Sadly, No aspire to mockery, but tend to get distracted by shiny objects and german hand job videos and end up settling for cursing and name calling…

Simple memes:
Repubs engage in Taxpayer-subsidized gay orgies.
Paid for by exprbant gas prices.
Tank of gas in 1996 = 25$
Tank of gas in 2006 = 45$
20$ goes to taxpayer-subsidized gay orgies.
You, SUV driver, are stuffing bills in the sweaty crotches of gay prostitutes doing repubs like duke and porter.

The fact is, I had no idea that that “girl” who was playing strip poker with me, Porter, the Duke-stir, and Karl, wasn’t a girl at all, until “she” removed “her” falsies. By then, it was double-or-nothing round. My bet was that anybody I lost to could do me right up against the wall. Before I knew it, there I was, legs spread, ass in the air–and there “she” was, right behind me! I blame the Democrat party.
