#2 I looked this guy up at the State Dept site and, yep, a lifelong parasite in stripey pants - who was actually posted to Venezuela for awhile back before Chavez came to power.

This has to rank as one of the dumbest public utterances by a Foggy Headed Twit this year. Maybe the decade. Man, the State stables need mucking out something awful.

#4 At what point does the government say to shut up? In the corporate world you can get fired for talking about company policy or even just your opinions of the company online.

#7 I thought 'foggy bottom' referred to the smell of the chairs.
