Isn't it a little late in the day to spike Rumsfeld? And is it a good idea to replace him with someone from the CIA, considering how they botched the whole terrorist 9/11 thingy?
1. Clintoon repeated and savagely cut our funding.
2. Clintoon declared that we had to purge all assets (sources of information) that had any human rights baggage. We lost most of our intelligence gathering ability in one day. To think that only nice and moral people are going to commit treason and espionage is naive beyond belief.
3. You, the American people, elected Senators and Congresspeople that were liberal. They in turn have pulled the teeth from the Agency and have created a culture there where no one dares take any risks.
Here is my prediction. All my friends who still work at the Agency tell me it is only a matter of time before there is a devastating attack on one or more major US cities. We're talking casualties probably in the millions. I agree with them. When that happens were are all going to pull together and liberals will be marginalized - or we will have a military coup with civil war to one extent or another.
If several cities are hit simultaneously, there will be no government help, there will be not nearly enough hospital beds, communications will break down, there will be massive refugee movements. People will die in the streets from their wounds, dehydration and disease. I'm not trying to sound like some kind of "right wing wacko" but by God people we had better wake up.
