Finally Bush does the right thing. Okay, Paul, so you like it. How do you feel about the absence of the FBI and the CIA? Is that a problem? Should they have been included? Should we worry about the timing of the announcement? That the Bush people are paying too much attention to the immediate political spin--trying to smother the bad news from congressional investigations--and not enough to getting the job done? Or did they actually blunder politically in that each discussion I heard of the new department noted that the timing was obviously political? And how will the those who fear a larger federal government, particularly the right wing of Bush's party react? Just a few questions.
