roll within the intelligence community.

Nice of him to roll his fat ass outta the Pentagon.

[DoYouEverWonder]

7. He claims he is leaving to go sue

the news media for falsely accused him of conflicts of interest. Now who would ever even think a thing like that? A man who puts the interests of a foreign government ahead of his own, and the interests of his own pocket before anyone else? Tsk, tsk.

taken a dump in about a month.

Richard Perle Libel Watch, 20 Days to Expiration
In Week 49 of the libel watch, the Hollinger investigation shines its light on Perle.

How in hell's name can Richard Perle fulfill his promise to sue Seymour M. Hersh for libeling him in The New Yorker with the Hollinger International scandal widening and sucking up his time? The Times of London reports today that the internal investigation of Hollinger "is said to be now looking" at Hollinger board member Richard Perle's alleged failure to disclose to shareholders $3 million worth of bonuses for running a Hollinger investment project. One of the beneficiaries of the Hollinger investments was Trireme Partners ($2.5 million), the venture capital firm managed by Perle and probed by Hersh in his New Yorker feature. Another was Onset ($3 million), where Perle sits on the board of directors. Cambridge Display Technology, a company in which Perle reportedly holds a stake, received $14 million from Hollinger.

Times reporter Abigail Rayner writes that Perle's failure to disclose his bonuses "represents an apparent contravention" of Securities and Exchange Commission rules, which require directors of public companies to annually disclose earnings above $60,000.

15. Annnnnnnndddd .............KICK! n/t

[slinkerwink]

16. really? this does NOT bode well for the Bush administration

[yellowcanine]

17. Perle is upset by the mean things people are saying

about him. So he is going to deprive the country of the benefit of his pearls of wisdom (if only we could count on that).

[knight_of_the_star]

18. They know what's coming

He wouldn't be leaving if he thought that the GOP had a lock on November. The fact that HE is going, and him being one of the big ideas men and real chessmasters behind the whole thing shows a LOT. Looks like Bush is MUCH more vulnerable than we thought.

Good.

[not systems]

19. Hope he is going back to his home in France to await ...

the charges.

:party:

[Spazito]

20. I want to see Perle and Conrad Black peering out from behind bars...

that would be justice served, imo! They are cut from the same cloth and, therefore, deserve the same treatment.

[BiggJawn]

21. Big Deal. Now he's even less accountable...

So he resigns his seat. Big fucking deal, he just goes and stands behind somebody else's seat and whispers in their ear.

Maybe if he turns up doin' the Vince Foster act tomorrow we can cheer.

[eleny]

22. Sure reminds me of the Nixon years
