Maybe dad wanted his Promis back?

"But until Redmond's abrupt resignation, increasingly the documents relating to Saddam's use of Promis - and his relationship with President Bush's father - were what Redmond had begun to focus on", said a source close to the departed spy catcher.

Originally developed by a small company in Washington called Inslaw, there are now a number of versions of the software. One was installed by MI6 early in the 1990s. After Hanssen's arrest it was removed.

William Hamilton, president of Inslaw, said that top Bush aides and FBI director Robert Mueller had met to discuss the "implications" of Redmond's investigation.

"Redmond has said that Hanssen did hundreds of billions of dollars worth of damage. I have been told that Redmond's health is fine and there is a much more important reason for his resignation", said Mr Hamilton.

Like Mr Story, Mr Hamilton did not want to elaborate. But both men conceded that Redmond's investigation could have caused embarrassment to President Bush and his family.

America’s top spy-catcher, Paul Redmond, has suddenly resigned in the middle of his secret investigation into how Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden obtained state-of-the-art US computer software.
The software is claimed to enable the two most wanted men in the world to avoid capture because it can pin-point for them every move in the global man-hunt.
Redmond’s departure last week was accepted “without discussion” by President Bush – the man who had brought the spy catcher out of retirement to conduct the investigation.
Hours after Redmond had cleared his desk, Bush ordered a £25 million bound bounty on Saddam’s head.

New story shows Cheney lusting for Iraq oil in 2001.
That's the reason. The oil. It was always about the oil. And our troops and tax-payer money be damned.

I see DougR and AS made two good points in response to your post. I don't get the post that says #48? Another reason is that Bush43 has had the whole president job go to his head!
