"Sex, Drugs, and Energy Deals"

  • 27 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols

Breaking from the Denver Post:

Federal investigators say government officials handling billions of dollars in oil royalties engaged in illicit sex with employees of energy companies, and received improper gifts.

The alleged transgressions involve 13 Interior Department employees in Denver and Washington. Alleged improprieties include rigging contracts, working part-time as private oil consultants and having sexual relationships with – and accepting golf, ski trips and dinners from – oil company employees, according to three reports released Wednesday by the Interior Department’s Inspector General.

The Inspector General also claims the former head of the Denver Minerals Management Service, or MMS, office – which markets oil to energy companies – was having sex and using illegal drugs with subordinates.

Last month, the Denver Post reported on the pending release of the Inspector General’s report, saying it was expected to help explain breakdowns in accountability in government energy deals and other questionable activities discovered by the office’s investigators and whistle-blowers in recent years…

We’re just beginning to get our heads around this: all those rules and contracts and leasings that seem to always go the energy industry’s way, over the angry protests of local citizens and (usually) Democrats? Did you just find out why?

This smells politically explosive, stay tuned.

        1. all day you have brought this up for some reason … say what you have planned to say all day.

          If it requires a response from me, more then the above, then I offer this:

          Bob I was going to ask you about your wide stance … I can’t imagine the force you need and stance width required to get the massive turds out of your fat ass. Also, when you take your wide stance does your fat belly fall below your pecker causing you to piss yourself?

          ps Bob, I learned to crap by the RR tracks and use leafs to clean up.  That move my friend requires one to squat Asian style.

            1. Now Bob, if you blog your wide stance again, then I will understand your electronically channeling Larry Craig and want me to stop by the Post for a nooner with you.

      1. OK–so what is the worst of this, the one thing that will capture the public’s attention?  

        The drugs?  The porn?  The non-procreative sex?  The whole “fox guarding the henhouse” type of oversight we’ve come to expect from the GOP?  

          1. with the titillation angle jambo or being bound.  There are a lot of kinky posters hanging out here.  They don’t need to be titillated about being bound while typing away in mom’s basement.

    1. Former Att’y General of CO and Sec’t of Interior and now a lawyer for Shell, one of the named companies. Guess we know where her loyalties lie.  Her #2 while at DOI was Steven Griles, already in prison on a felony charge.

      Predictably the Bush DOJ is not pursuing criminal charges with MMS.  Too busy locking up protesters in St. Paul, I suppose, and stopping people names ‘John Smith’ and ‘Nelson Mandela’ from flying.

      Vote McCain for more of the same.

  1. upstairs at Interior.  I just imagined it was more figurative than literal.  These criminals need to be punished…a timely retirement is not enough!  Indict the Bush Administration from top to bottom.  Put ’em in pink pajamas and send them to AZ.
