What can we lose, they [CIA] have not been very effective in what it is they do.

Hmmm. That raises an interesting question:

Which is worse? A house cleaning that leaves the CIA shorthanded and possibly not able to effectively report new threats? Or...leaving in place those who KNOW the threat but refuse to act on it because it doesn't fit their ideology?

I vote for the house cleaning.
