I no longer believe it is possible to reform the CIA
You're absolutely right! The last good directer was Bill Casey!

And Casey had to go outside the lines and basically form an organization within an organization to accomplish what he did.
Since then the Left in the CIA has become so powerful that even Casey would have a tough time.

I still don't trust Negroponte. Sat on those Saddam docs (that are STILL being ignored by the MSM) for years.
Still I like the general... just going to see how it all plays out.
I'm starting to see that it might be a Rovian plan for the elections. You saw how the dimocraps jumped into the usual mode (and the usual republican sell outs of course).
Anyway, the topic is again on an issue of today and "How would R do it" versus "How would D do it".
They are telling everyone why they can't be trusted, and (more importantly for Rove's purposes) reminding Republicans just how bad the libs are. Just how crazy and beholden to that lunatic crowd they are these days.
The Hayden choice is just another ingredient to flavor it and make it 'pop' for the Dems and MSM to (predictably) think they need to plaster this wall to wall, only to be 'shocked' later to find it totally blows up in their face come election time (or some new 'polls' come in.. ugh)
I liked Goss... or at least liked what he was supposed to be there to do. But given the replacement, the circumstance, and his previous comments about not wanting to be there long... I'm at least wiling to hold off and see how things play out in the next week or two.

(Better to take what they can throw at us now,rather than take what they promise to throw at us later)
