[Miss Marple]

Sour grapes from someone who will be leaving soon...his term ends and he was not asked to remain.

He is no doubt also left out of the loop because as a Clinton recess appointment, he cannot be trusted with information on the War on Terror.

Probably hoping he gets to testify before someone in the Senate...probably Ted Kennedy. Mark my words, Kennedy will call for an investigation.

Of course this has all sorts of opportunity to backfire, but they are desperate to find something to hang on President Bush. Ha!

Satcher, who previously served as director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), said the whole US public health system needs an infusion of cash.

Well, once again we are left with but one question of a Clinton administration appointee: WHY DIDN'T YOU DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT WHEN *YOU* WERE IN CHARGE??????

Hmmmmmm...... Good theory!
