Just who hobnobs with whom in the hot, dank Finnish Embassy sauna? Now we know! "Melissa Merz, a principal at the public affairs firm Podesta Group [American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity! Cherokee Nation! Lockheed Martin! Wal-Mart!] , arrived with her husband, Robert Mackey, a retired Army lieutenant colonel and historian hired by the government to declassify documents [cough, spook!]. The group then grew to include Lynne Weil, the communications director for the House Foreign Affairs Committee; her husband, Nils Bruzelius, an executive editor at the Environmental Working Group [cell phones kill!]; and Christine Mangi, a spokeswoman for Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) [Committee on Indian Affairs! Committee on Appropriations!] at the Senate Republican Conference.... Mark Landler, the New York Times diplomatic correspondent, arrived with his wife, Angela Tung [former IBM!], a lawyer who wore a made-in-Finland Marimekko dress. Wall Street Journal correspondent Jay Solomon and Block, the AIPAC spokesman [Israel!], followed."

All bribery cash will be exchanged in the presence of the very tall, slender Klansman.
Saunas (unless they are turned off) are not dank. Never.
As a Finnish American, an ethnicity that did not exist until just now when I invoked it, I'd like to point out that, per Finnish tradition, these people also smacked each other's nekkid bodies with birch branches and then ran out of the sauna and rolled naked in any available snow.
While I'm sure rolling and snow were involved, I doubt it was in this particular form.
