NEW YORK - A former journalist and ex-congressional press secretary was arrested Thursday on charges she acted as an Iraqi spy before and after the U.S. invasion of Iraq (news - web sites), accepting $10,000 for her work, prosecutors said Thursday.

Susan Lindauer, 41, was arrested in her hometown of Takoma Park, Md., and was to appear in court later in the day in Baltimore, authorities in New York said.

She was accused of conspiring to act as a spy for the Iraqi Intelligence Service and with engaging in prohibited financial transactions involving the government of Iraq.

Lindauer worked at Fortune, U.S. News & World Report and the Seattle Post-Intelligencer before beginning her career as a political publicist. She worked for then U.S. Rep. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., before joining the office of former Illinois Sen. Carol Moseley-Braun as press secretary in 1996.

Chris Fitzgerald, a spokesman for Wyden, now a senator, said the office had heard Thursday of Lindauer's arrest and expected to issue a statement later in the day.

"She worked for us a short period of time," he said.

Moseley-Braun's current spokesperson, Loretta Kane, said the former senator does not remember Lindauer.

The denials begin

Moseley-Braun's current spokesperson, Loretta Kane, said the former senator does not remember Lindauer.

Hillaryitis--absence of memory of specific events and persons.

"The denials begin."

The more they deny the more we pry . . .

How can you deny knowing your press secretary when you open your mouth and insert foot as often as CMB did/does?
