WASHINGTON - Within the past month, four former deputy directors of operations have tried to offer CIA Director Porter J. Goss advice about changing the clandestine service without setting off a rebellion, but Goss has declined to speak to any of them, said former CIA officials aware of the communications.

Have at it!
Time to retire the "veterans" at the CIA. Then, onto State (pack your bags Armitage!)
This once again shows that legislators can not make good executive branch leaders.
Bingo! Goss is there to fumigate the place. The treasonous Clintons seriously compromised the agency by filling it with radical left-wing moles. We saw this recently with the "leaks" during the campaign about the weapons depots. I would not be surprised to find Clinton era CIA ops behind the dustup over the Abu-Graib prisoners as well. Just a few more chapters in the disgraceful legacy of Traitor-in-Chief William Jefferson Clinton.
Good! Clean it up. The CIA has not served us well.
bttt
This is great news!
Clean the 'rat's nest out.

The New York, DC And LA members of the press must think we are as stupid as they are.
Exactly why Bush chose Goss to go in and shake-up an agency that has become more like the State Dept and less like the CIA of old.
Finally, get rid of the deadwood. they have been sitting on their asses playing spy agency for to long. When you have supposed clandestine agents (Plame) that are social butterflies, you have a problem with the mentality of the agency. Clean house. And to those that stay, PRODUCE or be gone.
He's doing what he was sent there to do; taking names and kicking butt.
The old-timers are not going quietly. The WP writers are doing their best to protect the sources they've so carefully cultivated over the years.
Huh??? Goss is making a great start, pulling the plug and draining the swamp. The idea of bringing in someone who cut his teeth doing operations for Bill Casey sounds excellent.
I feel sorry for them....NOT
Those concerned include the senior officers whom DCI Goss is about to boot, and the liberal establishment that has run CIA for decades -- and sees another of its fiefdoms threatened. It is war in Langley, and Goss will need courage, a spine of steel, and a non-CIA security detail to finish the job.
"...rebellion..." WTH? Fire their lib-dem butts! Clean out the rats!!
Do what must be done Porter. The grass roots will support you as we did the President so long as we understand the truth - and we don't need the MSM for that.
IMHO and experience, the best way is to do it all at once and completely. This way, everyone else knows they are safe and can get on with business. The longer you drag it out, the worse it is. People are often unnecessarily worried.
Clean out the dead wood and if they go blabbing to the media throw them in jail PERIOD
