BREAKING: GAY GOP HOOKER SCANDAL TAKES DOWN PORTER GOSS: MORE TO FOLLOW?

This is a story that has to have Michael Castle pooping his pants.

As you may recall, "as many as a half a dozen members of congress... " are involved in this Watergate scandal.

AND... On August 11, 2004 Michael Castle urged U.S. Senate to confirm Porter Goss as the next CIA Director.

I worked with Porter for eight years on the House Select Committee on Intelligence and found him to be a straight shooter... Which corrupt GOP Congressman will be next?

UPDATE: You know this story is going to break in huge way when Matt Drudge tries to get infront of it with this headline: CIA CHIEF TIED TO CONTRACTOR'S POKER PARTIES; HINTS OF BRIBES AND WOMEN Notice how they are now trying to spin it to inbclude female prostitutes. This is the RNC in full damage control mode.

Comments:
I don't care what you say about Porter Goss - he definitely has the coolest name of any spook ever. Skull and Bones all the way.
 
Maybe Castle will want to spend more time with his hookers.....oops, I mean family.
 
Seems like the stenographers in the press aren't following the Hookergate angle.

The early AP article states that the Goss resignation is just part of the ongoing White House shakeup and interestingly, links it to the recent transfer of Rove's duties. Neither hookers nor the Watergate were mentioned.

FOX is no better, of course.

But CNN has a little more:
Former CIA Director Stansfield Turner told CNN that Goss may have resigned because he was passed over for the new position of director of national intelligence, which went to John Negroponte.

Former Rep. Bob Barr agreed with Turner's speculation and added, "I think there's going to be more coming out, we don't know the whole story."

 
Nobody quits in the middle of friday afternoon to spend more time with the family or becuase they were passed over.

As docile as the press is, they will get to the hooker angle soon enough.
 
I love the smell of fired Republicans on a Friday afternoon. Smells like... victory.

This could be another one of those defining moments in the GOP downfall - Rove is next.

I'm not sure who is giving out the early line from the WH - maybe Bolten - but isn't it interesting that in a story about a high-level resignation, Rove's name keeps coming up out of the blue?
 
The new GOP talking point:

"I did NOT have sexual relations with that man!!"
