Time will tell if Susan Lindauer will go down on espionage charges or merely be castigated for naivete in conducting business transactions with a government that sponsors terrorism. One thing's sure, she's not a very good salary negotiator:
The indictment said she accepted $10,000 for working for the Iraqi Intelligence Service from 1999 to 2002, including payments for lodging at the Al-Rashid Hotel in Baghdad and expenses during meetings in New York City with Iraqi agents.
Pfft. $10,000 including expenses? I knew the job market was soft, but jeez. Chrisopher Boyce made twice that in half as many years, and that was in the mid-1970s.
Maybe the TV-movie rights will make up for it.
