CIA director resigns

Hmm...seems like the under-reported GOP hooker story is about to get interesting.
CIA Director Porter Goss has resigned, President Bush said Friday. No explanation was made.

Bush called Goss' tenure one of transition.
His tenure is one of transition? Yeah, got'cha...I think we know better as maybe this had something to do with Gorss quitting so quickly.

Ken Silverstein reports at Harper's blog on the spreading Cunningham-Wade-Wilkes prostitute scandal. He says more lawmakers, past and present, are being investigated. Sounds like he thinks House Intel Chair-turned-CIA Director Porter Goss is one of them:

I've learned from a highly-connected source that those under intense scrutiny by the FBI are current and former lawmakers on Defense and Intelligence comittees -- including one person who now holds a powerful intelligence post. [emphasis added]

Yowzah.

Yowzah indeed.
