What the HELL is Negroponte doing? Why hasn't he been able to stop these leaks or identify these leakers. The man is the most inept human on the planet. National Security is HIS job and he's failing miserably. GET RID OF NEGROPONTE!

Negroponte is our ambassador to Iraq. -Tom

On April 19, 2004, President Bush nominated Ambassador Negroponte to serve as the U.S. Ambassador to Iraq. And on May 6, 2004, the Senate confirmed his nomination

First Director of National Intelligence Confirmed

President George W. Bush

Washington, DC
April 21, 2005


I commend the Senate for moving quickly to confirm John Negroponte as the first Director of National Intelligence. I congratulate John on his confirmation, and I look forward to working closely with him. As the DNI, Ambassador Negroponte will lead a unified intelligence community as it reforms and adapts to the new challenges of the 21st century. The United States continues to make progress in the global war on terror against the enemies of freedom who target innocent civilians and seek weapons of mass destruction. I appreciate John's willingness to once again serve his country and the many men and women who serve in the intelligence community.
