Hookergate Update: Indictment Against ex-CIA #3 Dusty Foggo
By Bill W. Wednesday May 21, 2008 3:10pm
Longtime readers will remember the first hookergate scandal (before the DC madam and Sen. David Vitter and later, Elliott Spitzer, etc) revolving around Rep. Randy 'Duke' Cunningham, his briber/co-conspirator, Brent Wilkes and his long-time buddy at the CIA, Kyle 'Dusty' Foggo.
Now the AP is reporting:
A new indictment of a former top CIA official alleges that he received bribes in the form of "sexual companionship" from a friend seeking an edge in landing multimillion-dollar contracts from the agency. Federal prosecutors in Alexandria, Va., on Tuesday obtained a superseding indictment against Kyle "Dusty" Foggo, who as executive director held the CIA's No. 3 rank before leaving in 2006.
The indictment accuses Foggo of accepting tens of thousands of dollars in meals, vacations and other perks in exchange for helping friend Brent Wilkes obtain various contracts with the CIA. ...(more)
The Wshington Post makes it seem slightly less salacious, like it involves an ex-mistress he tried to get a job at the CIA and not a prostitute. Not quite sure if they are talking about different parts of the same indictment or not, but I'd say it appears that way at this point. Wilkes had plied Cunningham with prostitutes, among other things, so it's not surprising at all he would have used the same tactic with Dusty. Wilkes and Foggo had been roommates in college, best men at each others' weddings, and even named their sons after each other.
In related recent news:
- Convicted 'Duke' Cunningham briber/co-conspirator Brent Wilkes just received a 12 year sentence and sits in jail while pending an appeal because he can't afford the bail thanks in part to the housing crisis. Despite his financial woes, he was denied a court appointed attorney last month.
- Another convicted 'Duke' Cunningham briber/co-conspirator and super-duper-secret-mystery man, Thomas Kontogiannis, was sentenced to 8 years and fined $1 million last week following a super-secret plea deal, so I'm looking for him to turn up at another 5-star hotel in Greece any day now.
- Yet another 'Duke' Cunningham briber/co-conspirator (and Cheney buddy), Mitchell Wade, has plead guilty, was fined $1 million by the FEC, and is due to be sentenced in Dec.

I look at the photos of all these disgusting, repigs and I can't help but think that it's lucky for them that they're in a position where people will pay hookers to screw them because that's the only way these buttuglies could ever get laid.
Oh, and it's also a good thing for them that humping a trollop still qualifies them as "family values" types.
Its incidents like these that I am glad that there are Federal prosecutors along with other agencies taking the time to gather the evidence to put these crooks away. One right after the other, they are all landing in prison. I appreciate those Federal prosecutors service and dedication. After all, they know that if there is one slick crook working in the Government, there are usually more that are or were working with them. These aren't some two bit thieves that just robbed a gas station. No, these guys are smart and know how to hide the evidence of their crimes. It takes a lot of work to catch those types of criminals and from the looks of it the Federal prosecutors are doing a good job.
Yeah, my homeland feel real secure knowing a pig like Foggo, third in command at the CIA. was knee deep in all kinds of sex crimes. When did these guys have time to do the job they were supposed to be doing when they were wining and dining and whoring around?
OT News on MSNBC
McCain drops Hagee and Hagee takes back his endorcement.
Endorsement not endorcement
Kyle 'Dusty' Foggo? I. Lewis 'Scooter' Libby? Randy 'Duke' Cunningham? 'Tommy K'?
When did we leave Gary Trudeau in charge of naming real-life neo-cons anyway? Are we still waiting on preposterous nicknames for Mitchell Wade and Brent Wilkes? Not that they need them.
Dusty Foggo?
Shouldn't he have the dust blown off?
Does a hookergate swing both ways?
Jeon Ji-Yung @ 8:
Sounds like mafia-like names to me.
Yellow Elephant Safari @ 1:
What happened to the "prostitution shouldn't be illegal" cries when Siegelman was forced to resign because of this? If it shouldn't be illegal for Dems, we really shouldn't make a 180 where the GOP is concerned.
I read this and then I think about reslugs trying to run on their 'record' and their 'integrity' and almost die laughing.
I expect if an independent research lab were permitted to do a study we'd discover that voting reslug is a symptom of a major mental illness because COME ON! Who in their right mind would believe ONE WORD that comes out of the mouths of these scum bags? You'd HAVE to have a brain injury!
General_Rennenkampf @ 12:
I never said that. So bugger off loser.
One big difference is Democrats rarely run explicitely as family values candidates, moral or the Christian candidate (until Obama).
Whatever happened to Larry Flynt's allegations that he had the "goods" on some
prominent members of Congress and their association with "Madams" in D.C.?
He was on the Larry King Show over a year ago and indicated he would be forthcoming
with "names"; yet his promise seems to have been just talk and no show.
Being able to refer to each other with these nicknames helps to reinforce their delusions of manly comraderie without explicitly acknowledging their latent homosexuality.
Yellow Elephant Safari @ 14:
I'm not a troll, I have been here for weeks.
I'm sorry that I insinuated you said something you didn't. Either way, if we are going to hold our boys to the standard a shitload of idiots on here did about how Siegelman should never have been forced to resign, then that faulty logic applies to the GOP, too.
I feel dirty typing that.
since the whitehouse and cheney are so secretive with their daily visitor records,
insisting on executive privilege, don't you just wonder how many
prostitutes bush and cheney have had or been supplied for their
secretive deals?
ysbaddaden @ 15:
Siegelman did.
dadams @ 19:
Considering how male animals of a high rank act in general, probably more than BushCo will ever admit.
General_Rennenkampf @ 12:
This blog did not defend Spitzer or say prostitution should be legal. In fact, I mentioned Spitzer in this post. So, to answer ysbaddaden @ 10 above, the hookergate does swing both ways, and can hit you in the ass no matter what side of the aisle you are on.
I will say though, that Spitzer spent his own money, and this case involved the procurement of call-girls in exchange for millions of dollars of no-bid contracts, so there is a difference.
Whoops, I was thinking of the Alabama governor indicted on corruption, I meant Spitzer. All political scandals merge together for me.
General_Rennenkampf @ 20:
But this thread isn't about Siegelman.
Additionally, besides the sex they were involved in the Duke Cunningham corruption case.
It sounds a little like mobster Al Capone being sent to jail not for mass murder but tax avoision.
Bill W. @ 22:
Yeah, but I thought I was making a dirty joke.
Bill W. @ 22:
Yes, there is a difference. I will heartily agree. Any politician guilty of such an offense should be impeached, I believe that falls under the Constitutional guidelines for it. For that matter, the House should have expelled people like Vitter, Fossella, and Frank.
I'm also for a Bush impeachment, along with the impeachment of the Congresscritters who voted for the Iraq War Resolution.
Hello my friends, I come here on behav of the great Senator McCain. You may not have herd of him cause I know you librals don't watch FOX news but I wanted to put in a few good words about him and what a maverick and strait talker he is. Umm, he's a real maverick and a strait talker and, umm, oh! He's a war hero 'n stuff. Yeah. A war hero. And he'll be a great leeder.
(how wuz that?)
#16 maybe this will be larry flynt's version of an october surprise.
Oh boy, another criminal (a.k.a. republican) sexual deviant.
What is wrong with women that have sex with these creeps!!!!!!!
Actually to be fair, although the Spitzer story didn't raise comments about how prostitution shouldn't be illegal, I seem to recall comments about America's puritanical standards toward sex.
But this appears to be a sex for favors scheme. Essentially, it's bribery.
redcat @ 28:
I thought that would be an October issue of Baby Face with a Miley Cyrus centerfold.
Underground Pirate @ 29:
I'm not just curious about the women, I'm worried about the men!!!! The record of Republicans with gays-for-pay and how they treat their partner afterward makes the treatment of women look positively chivalrous.
ysbaddaden @ 31:
You're right. Here's a sneak peek, and it aint pretty.

General_Rennenkampf @ 21:
Probably a lot more male escorts on that list than they'd like to admit too.
MargeAggedon @ 37:
Indeed. In both human and nonhuman worlds, high-ranking males can coerce sex from others. I'm only surprised if it turns out any Congresscritters, Justices, or Executive officials are 100% faithful.
MargeAggedon @ 37:
So what if Jeff Gannon has lots of friends?
Yellow Elephant Safari @ 1:
Hey... you're sayin' what I'm thinkin'... Thanks!
Not only are these crooks buttugly, they're getting some of what they deserve. Woohoo! I'm really hoping the repiglican house of cards has started to fall.
Way old story. Repigs that aren't gay hate women so much as to have sex with prostitutes. They have sex with their figid old WASP wives to reproduce and that's it. Is anyone surprised by this shit?
"Dusty" Foggo?
Are the GOP borrowing nicknames from Demolition Derby Drivers?
"DUSTY FOGGO?!?" Damn! What a GREAT name for a comic book or cartoon character!
Those of us who knew of Dusty when he was an investigator with the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office Bureau of Investigation aren't surprised by these developments.

Hey-- How 'bout some photos of the women?
when the former number 3 guy at the cia can be lured with honey, the country has a big problem.
Dusty Fogo? WTF another freakish sound name of a right winger?
Joe O. @ 3:
It would be great to watch Foggo get taken down and then somebody finger Rep Jerry Lewis of San Bernardino, California - who is closely tied in with Cunningham, Foggo, and the rest of those slimey creeps. There would be one less congressman that the Pitchforks and Torches Society will have to waste time and money investigating. Lewis controls boat loads of money, and is so crooked, that when he dies they'll have to screw him into the ground.
north coast@43 I don't think anyone expected things like this, maybe a little skirt chasing, but not world wide crime family. check mad cow link from 34. lada would have been around 79?---CEO
