CIA Director Porter Goss Resigns

Porter Goss either resigned or was fired. It will be interesting to see what the story is. However, there has been a growing story that is an offshoot of the Randy Cunningham bribery case. Josh Marshall of Talking Points Memo says the director's resignation might be related to Hookergate:

As I said a short time ago, we don't know definitively yet that Porter Goss resigned over the Wilkes-Cunningham Hookergate story. But on the assumption that that is the case, let me give you a bit of background on what we've been following in recent weeks.

The hookers in Hookergate are, of course, the sizzle. But there's a bigger story. It stems directly from the Randy "Duke" Cunningham bribery scandal, which many had figured was over. But it's not. You may have noticed that while Duke Cunningham is already in jail and Mitchell Wade has already pled guilty to multiple charges, Brent Wilkes has never been touched. Wilkes is the ur-briber at the heart of the Cunningham scandal, you can see pretty clearly by reading the other indictments and plea agreements. Wade was Wilkes' protege.

If the resignation of Porter Goss is related to Hookergate, I have a question, but keep in mind that it's speculative at this point. Is the White House getting inside information on some of these investigations revolving around Cunningham, Wade, Wilkes, Abramoff and even Libby?
