The company you keep

US Soccer wants to return the World Cup stateside. A worthy goal, pun intended. But the soccer federation just added to its bid group one Henry Kissinger, who's had long associations with, among other undesirables, AIG. And the Yank bid group also trumpets its a board member formerly with Goldman Sachs, a firm that isn't exactly popular these days. Guess they're the type of folks who are friendly with the masters of FIFA, though.
