Looks Like Rummy And Shooter Will Get Direct Control Of The Agency

They are circling the wagons big time...pun intended

The Left Coaster: Looks Like Rummy And Shooter Will Get Direct Control Of The Agency:

"Time magazine reported late today that NSA director General Michael Hayden will be announced early next week as Porter Goss's replacement as Director of Central Intelligence. Hayden, who has already shown an inability to testify truthfully and accurately in his current job as NSA chief, will fit right in over at the Agency. In essence, Dick Cheney and Don Rumsfeld gain direct control of the CIA with Hayden's ascension. Even with that, Hayden will be an improvement over Goss, who seemingly took his appointment at CIA as a green light to install his congressional lackeys at the Agency to set fire to the place, on the assumption that Goss knew best from his time as chair of the House Intelligence Committee. Hayden values the technical side of intelligence gathering, which makes you wonder what makes him the best choice for the human intelligence side of the equation, aside from his loyalty to Rummy."
