Remember that bubba refused to have CIA daily briefings. When a small plane flew into the White House the joke was that it was the CIA director trying to get in to see the President.

As Director of the CIA, Woolsey is notable for having a very limited relationship with President Bill Clinton. According to journalist Richard Miniter:

Never once in his two-year tenure did CIA director James Woolsey ever have a one-on-one meeting with Clinton. Even semiprivate meetings were rare. They only happened twice. Woolsey told me: "It wasn't that I had a bad relationship with the president. It just didn't exist."
