Foggo's dossier

Now that ex-number-three-at-CIA Dusty Foggo's is getting three years in prison, a number of fascinating details about him are coming to light.

The killer was the quote at the end of this piece. It's mid 2004, and the CIA is considering Foggo for the CIA exec job. Foggo's long list of misdeeds were known to the CIA. Questionable conduct, security risks, and outright lies are overlooked - and why?
[CIA DIrector Porter Goss'] team also thought it wouldn't matter much whom they picked, since Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., the Democrats' presidential candidate, was "certain" to win the election and they would all soon be gone. 
Oh, if only, man... if only.

Apparently, the CIA's tea leaves are as effective at predicting elections as they are for finding WMD.
