Peter King angry about N.Y. cut threatens to probe "CIA Orgies"
Congressman to probe 'CIA orgies'
Peter King angry about N.Y. cut in Homeland Security budget

Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y.
If cuts in New York state's Homeland Security allocation are not restored, Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., is threatening to launch an investigation into rumors of orgies involving CIA agents at the Watergate Hotel.

King, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, made the threat on WABC Radio's John Gambling show yesterday.

"The cut to me raises very serious questions about the judgment and the sincerity of the department and everything they do," he said. "If they can't get something like this right, how can we trust them to get anything right? So I am going to be investigating them from top to bottom, and one clear example is this whole scandal with Congressman Duke Cunningham, which has now unfolded to include orgies at the Watergate Hotel."

Prior to the resignation of CIA Director Porter Goss, a top adviser also quit after admitting he attended poker parties arranged by a lobbyist. Prostitutes allegedly were present at the hotel.

King claimed the allegations include "prostitutes and booze and gambling and CIA agents."

3. What atrocious logic. They are two separate issues. Does anyone
else feel that the structure of logic that used to pervail in this country has vanished?

He should have not said anything.

Maybe this is typical Republican betrayal and revenge game. Of a very weird species of human games.

Why did I think he had his head on straight about ten years ago?

10. I'm glad he's getting some news with that comment. It's been in a
black hole since it first came out.

4. I like it!
He's a Republican. I think this is pretty good. It brings attention to the fact that the "orgies" need to be investigated. :)

5. Stupid Repuke gets what he gets from his own party.
Cities vote Democrat.

Why would the Repukes want to protect them?

Remember New Orleans?

9. Sounds as though he is bragging about abusing power
Fullfilling his Constitutional duties is a poker chip to King to be put into play only when it suits his need.

7. Isn't he pretty much admitting that leading Republicans were there...?
Edited on Fri Jun-02-06 08:35 PM by Marr
He's threatening to out one of their little criminal enterprises if they don't reverse that decision. "CIA", my ass. This is clearly a threat directed at the Republican leadership, not a few CIA beauracrats.

Stunning admission, really.
