If you read this blog, you are probably already know about “the $140,000 pass-through.” That would be the deal whereby Mitchell Wade got $140,000 from the government for providing “anthrax screening” in the office of the Vice-President—and then turned around and spent $140,000 to buy Duke Cunningham a yacht.
Among all the crimes and follies of this or any other government, a $140,000 venality is actually fairly small potatoes. But it is so crude, vulgar, insolent and blatant, that it still takes my breath away. Anyway, on the off chance you are still vague about the details, take a look at Laura Rozen’s fine summary here.
