Fat Leonard: Scammin' the Navy

Every now and again (about once a month), a Stinker comes along and is just such a damn rapscallion that it's hard to do anything but love him. Fat Leonard is the most recent example. He bilked the government out of about a quarter billion dollars in defense contracts while bribing Navy officials with cash, hookers, top shelf Hennessy, and Lady Gaga tickets.
