How to fix the CIA
Fixing the intelligence problem should be at the top of the agenda for the next president. It's too late for the Bush administration to do much, except make things worse.The reorganization that created the Office of the Director of National Intelligence was a mistake, forced on a reluctant Bush administration by a Congress determined to show it was doing something to fix the problems that led to 9/11. But the "reform" has actually made some of those problems worse. It embodied the classic Washington response of throwing in more money and a new organization chart. What we have created is more confusion. When the next president thinks about fixing the CIA, he or she ought to consider the radical thought that it's time to blow up the CIA and start over.
