What is to prevent this new "re-org" and (assuming) larger "security" department from NOT turning out like another BATF?

BATF is a special case of an agency run amuk. Not even the DEA or FBI is as bad as them, and those two are pretty bad.

BATF is widely known as a place where you can dump incompetant people. I don't think they want screwups in this new agency.

I agree with what you say in post #105. Which is why I ask my question. What is to stop this from becoming (in later years) that "special case" "unit"? The dumping ground for thugs and cases run amuck? I guess what I am really asking is, is the administration thinking about safeguards to prevent the corruption of this new agency and it's sub-departments (I guess another question is, "Is there anyway to prevent such?"). Again, I believe in what Bush is doing. I would be willing to bet he has thought about this as well.

Call me jaded, but you know as well as I do that anything Gov't can be corrupted.
