"The Cookie and Buzzy Show" Moves To Another Channel

State Department Inspector General Howard "Cookie" Krongard has resigned from the State Department. Several weeks ago, Cookie was testifying before the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on his Department's failure to properly manage their contractors, specifically the Blackwater mercenaries. When Committee Chairman Waxman noted that Cookie's brother, Alvin "Buzzy" Krongrad was on Blackwater's advisory board, Cookie claimed ignorance. During a break in the hearing, Cookie was told by Buzzy that he was connected to Blackwater. Oops. Buzzy later said that he had informed Cookie of his status with Blackwater weeks before the hearing. Cookie's testimony is being examined for possible perjury. Nicely played.

We will miss the further adventures of Cookie and Buzzy, although family dinners at the Krongards' house should be most exciting.
