It's not in the money stupid. It's in what was done with the money and what was the agenda or focus leadership of the Agency. Where does the buck stop. Who was the leader and who appointed all the folks to understand and carry out his understanding of the dangers.

Tasking CIA space assets to study sand turtles and dolphins was just plain stupid. Go ahead and explain why what follows does not show complete stupidity of mr bill. What the meaning if is is.

"You had this whole weird experience with the Clinton administration that
[Osama bin Laden] was behind the bombing of two American embassies,"
Gingrich told Fox News Channel's "Hannity & Colmes."

"They all believed [bin Laden] was behind the World Trade Center [attack in
1993]."

But, the former Republican leader explained, "they were so tied into the
rule of law, in the narrowest American sense, that they had an opportunity
for Sudan to give them bin Laden and they couldn't take him."

Gingrich continued:

"Now, I would just suggest to you that there is no national security
explanation for why we allowed bin Laden to get away with the Sudanese
offers.

"If the story that came out today is true, that the Sudanese literally offered to give us bin Laden and the Clinton administration could not figure out a legal rationale - this is an administration that argued over what the meaning of the word 'is' is.

"Now, if they couldn't figure out a way, an argument about bin Laden, to
keep him, there was something profoundly wrong with the psychology of the
[Clinton] administration."
