CIA Executive Director Kyle 'Dusty' Foggo has resigned his post, according to an email sent out to the agency Monday morning, MSNBC reported Monday.

Foggo's resignation was reported Monday on MSNBC. The email, which the network did not provide, allegedly stated that in light of CIA Director Porter Goss's departure, Foggo is stepping down.

According to MSNBC, the e-mail stated that "new directors deserve the ability to bring in their own team," and that Foggo expects to remain on the job for a few more weeks during the "transition."

Foggo has acknowledged participating in the poker parties at the hotel rooms, but he has said there was nothing untoward about that. "If he attended occasional card games with friends over the years, Mr. Foggo insists they were that and nothing more," the CIA statement said.

Foggo's associates have said he received the Intelligence Commendation Medal for supporting the war on terror in 2002. Before becoming the agency's No. 3 leader in 2004, he was the chief of base at a classified facility that supports the war on terror.

Sounds like a great argument for limiting the size of gummint.

Unless you guys think people in the OTHER thousand agencies aren't also doing the same thing.


BTW...Hillary's healthcare plan (and Obama's and the Breck Girl's ) is going to necessitate additional hordes of gummint employees...juuuuuuust like ole dusty foggo. Just saying.

I mean what do you expect when you give a bunch of bureaucrat drones responsibility for huge sums of outlays, and create a structure where they almost can't be fired.
