Goss' Reign Marked By Cronyism, Vendettas


The whole g-damned administration is based on cronyism and vendettas.

Goss fit right in, until he didn't. Goss is not a Bush insider. Neither is Hayden. He might want to think about that.

courant.com Goss' Reign Marked By Cronyism, Vendettas:

"To understand what went so badly wrong at the CIA under Porter Goss, it's worth examining the career of his executive director, the onomatopoetic Kyle 'Dusty' Foggo. His rise illustrates the conservative cronyism, leak paranoia and political vendettas that undermined Goss' tenure.

Foggo was an affable employee of the CIA's Directorate of Support, managing logistical activities in Germany, when he came to the attention of then-congressman Goss and his aides on the House intelligence committee. Foggo is said to have endeared himself to Goss and his staff director, Patrick Murray, by facilitating trips overseas by the House panel."
