who could blame him, really?

Finally something interesting emerges from the otherwise bland national security/whore/bribery/poker scandal:

The man Mr. Goss first selected to become the C.I.A.'s executive director, Michael V. Kostiw, had to turn down the job when it surfaced in the news media that he had resigned from the agency in the 1980's after being caught shoplifting bacon.

If there'd been a good bacon-loving fellow like Kostiw at the agency, well, I don't want to say we would have already won the War on Terror, but, really, we definetly would have.
