wasn't Mueller on the job only a matter of days before 9/11? i think the FBI looks the worst, but i'm not sure he's going to take the fall. after all, the FBI had been shut out during the CLINTONE years, and was mainly a legal investigative body, not a domestic intelligence arm which it is now becoming.

OOOOOPS; that 's right: July 5, 2001. OTOH, the FBI has not been well-led for a long time.
I could make this into an indictment of the left: the FBI was neutered on purpose by the Church and Pike Committees. The old FBI was on to the domestic threat from the left.
So, maybe they will just settle for taking terrorism away from the FBI and forming this MI5-type agency? Let the FBI catch bank robbers and find abducted kids. The FBI is threatened: McFarlane is on FNC right now praising the FBI. He is highlighting *structural problems* and segued to the CIA in about 5 words. More finger-pointing.
