Security Lapses Are Clinton's Fault -- Not so according to Jacob Weisberg... Some people, like Daniel Patrick Moynihan, spent the 1990s arguing that we didn't need a CIA at all. Clinton, however, never bought into this argument. His administration consistently supported a robust budget for the CIA, reportedly in the range of $30 billion. And Clinton's final choice to head the agency, George Tenet, was popular enough with George W. Bush to keep his job in a Republican administration. In short, it's hard to make a convincing case that our failure to know what Bin Laden was up to had much to do with policies specific to the Clinton administration.
