That means they will screen out any entrenched clinton holdovers and get the very best of the agencies. Gotta love it. They keep playing checkers and Bush is playing chess :-)

You make an excellent point. This reorg is a way to sweep out Clinton holdovers, incompetent career bureaucrats or reassign such people to lesser positions.
