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.”

It's etched and inked with a very nice rendition of the Blancpain Replica Watches which, as an engineer and pilot myself, has always been one of my favorite planes. The alarm is good, though not as loud as the 80dB Omega. Luminox managed this compromise while still maintaining 100m water resistance, though, which is a good tradeoff and a strong point in their favor.The face and dial are, in contrast to the Raptor just reviewed, quite sparse and understated. Stark white hands, minimal text and graphics, and a reverse LCD display; it all adds up to outstanding legibility. The sapphire crystal minimally domed with an inner camber and inner A/R coating also helps quite a bit. And, of course, at night the tritium tubes rock. Note, however, that the digital portion is not backlit, and therefore not useable in the dark. The Swiss Chanel Ceramic Watch has some really unusual features you might enjoy like the compass, and the "week of year" and tachymeter modes. I like that you can select a display mode that suits you: time, full date (day/date/year/month), seconds only (very clean), time, second or third timezone, alarm or countdown timer. It's an extremely functional Japanese Rolex Replica, and as with the Bedat & CO Replica Watches, the large curved segments are easy to read and use. The buttons and pushbutton crown are well-sized and spaced, and work fine even with gloves on; that's one advantage for the crown design. Case and packaging are quite good; it comes in a very nice travel pack with padding and cleaning cloth that you can actually use as opposed to something you store on a shelf or discard. It also has internal pockets to hold the manual and warranty card another thoughtful touch.The bracelet is good and fully PVD coated, including the inside bits of the clasp. It has snap closure, fliplock, four micro-adjustments, solid links with pins, and solid end links a good match for the Zenith Replica Watches, and with standard lugs on the case so you could try your own strap if you want. I suspect it would work well with a dark leather strap, as well.On the wrist, this is a fun Patek Philippe Replica to wear: substantial, but not massive, uniquely styled, and tremendously legible day or night. The sculpted bezel and profile mean that it's more cuff-friendly than you might expect which is one more thing to like about the design. List price on the Blackbird is $1,500, consistent with Luminox's recent push into higher-end Rolex Ladies Replica Watches. For a Tudor Replica Watches that compares well to the X-33, that seems like a reasonable price, especially given the discounts usually available, and how much easier the Luminox will be to find.If you like analog-digital Piaget Replica Watches as much as I do, this one is a clear winner: more waterproof than the X-33, tritium illumination, good alarm, tons of functions, cool inner bezel, cuff-friendly profile, and a clean, understated dial.Our thanks to Luminox USA for the review loan.By Paul Hubbard; For updates on content, follow Franck Muller Replica Report on Twitter.
