The “ports deal” was a CIA front to get our agents into 137 ports in which we have little intel capability. The story appeared on Foxnews and in the NY Times. You need to drop that mantra. Immigration sucked and Miers was not my choice either... but the ports deal was something other than what it appeared.

I've not heard this before. If true, that is truly pathetic & explains a lot. I thought the CIA was supposed to be "incognito". To try to use something like this as a front - something sure to inflame the American people so much - shows either a completely deaf ear or an absolutely willfull disregard for the good of the country.
Any way I look at it, I think the CIA needs to be completely cleaned out & restructured back to where they can be effective.
I am also glad to see Rove go - a little too little too late, but better late than never, I guess.
