CIA news:

Don,

Here's a permanent link to the story you posted.

Yahoo News does a great disservice to us by removing stories from their server after a brief period of time.

I read an article within the past couple of days that I can't quite put my finger on, but which described the White House attitude toward the CIA.

In a nutshell, we have a nutcase in the White House. He has the lunatic notion that ideology ought to drive the intelligence, and intelligence ought to be abandoned when it doesn't serve the ideology. The other word for Bush's brain is idiot-ology.

So, they want to throw out the CIA, because it is terribly inconvenient to the White House's goals. World conquest demands faith in the Empire, not facts. And the CIA was annoyingly close to providing facts to madmen. In house "intel" operations such as the Office of Special Plans(OSP) and its successors is much more conducive to the sort of insanity emanating from the White House today.
