Oh, this is grand!

They said the report was more a reflection of the agency's failure to communicate its successes than its ability to fight drug trafficking.

"It's not that we're doing things wrong or we've been ineffective," a spokesman, Will Glaspy, said. "It's more that we just need to do a better job of defining our accomplishments."

"we just didn't make it clear that "success" is defined as keeping our jobs and our budget increases." LOL!

This reminds me of the scene from the movie "Office Space" where the main character is explaining the "rounding scam" to Jennifer Aniston in the car, and she says, "and how is that not stealing". He replies, "ok, maybe I'm not explaining this correctly....".

Reminds me of the Rick Berman interview I saw described on Slashdot yesterday, in which he says that he doesn't understand why Star Trek: Nemesis tanked.

It ain't a river in Egypt.

Nice to know the guy who ran the "ineffective" DEA is now over at Homeland Security.
