Goss appointed to congressional ethics panel - big "poker party" planned at Watergate to celebrate Posted by Max Bergmann

Porter Goss was appointed to whaa... You got to be kidding me...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) on Thursday announced joint appointments to a landmark ethics review board that for the first time will allow private citizens to review allegations against members.

Still, four out of six members of the board for the newly created Office of Congressional Ethics (OCE) will be former members of Congress, including former CIA Director Porter Goss (R-Fla.), who will serve as co-chairman.

For those who may have forgotten, Porter Goss abruptly resigned late on a Friday afternoon, as a hooker scandal was making the rounds through the CIA. Seems like the right man for the job. As Think Progress explained at the time,

Cunningham-linked defense contractor Brent Wilkes curried favor with lawmakers and CIA officials by hosting weekly parties at lavish hospitality suites at the Watergate and Westin hotels in Washington. Guests would gamble, socialize, and sometimes receive prostitutes; according to Harper’s magazine, the festivities “began early with poker games and degenerated” into what one source described “as a ‘frat party’ scene — real bacchanals.”
