#1 Focus. Ignore the crap, the ankle-biters, the second-guessers. Get the best input you can, decide what makes sense given the knowns and best-guess on the unknowns. Organize. Execute. Focus.

semi informed thoughts,
Bush takes common sense action, he walks *instead of* spouting streams of nuanced wonky-talk(clintoon & Skerry) at press conferences and photo ops. ya gotta love it.

In accepting the commissionâs recommendations, President George W. Bush has directed that a new National Security Service be created inside the FBI to combine the bureauâs counterterrorism, counterintelligence and intelligence efforts. Bush also endorsed the establishment of a National Counter Proliferation Center to manage and coordinate intelligence activities on the proliferation of nuclear, biological and chemical weapons.

>FBI: they need huge cut in budget and a new mission, they should be tasked with one thing, to keep track of all the paper clips in Washington and keep them under surveillance.

>CIA? Go Goss Go!

> I do have some confidence in Negroponte and Michael Chertoff. I remember Negroponte when he pulled El Salvador out of the clutches of some nasty commie rat bastards. He's tough, he can take heat. Chertoff is tough, I just hope he's tough enough.

Sort of on topic?[The Supersized asshats.. binny, Zark, Alzwah, haven't pulled any big ones off for quite awile now.]

> Bio is probably the most likely and therefore the greatest risk for mass murder and or economic-dammage op in our country. (so called experts think) but a series of truck bombs could take out leadership and do alot of damage also.

I heard a report today about two Iraqis who were busted @ the Mexican border. Fox News tv. but I haven't found it since.

Europe there's the Tour..big symbol. I hate to even think about it.
say doom.

#5 Red Dog -- you don't mention the need for a purge at State. IMHO, we need to either have a complete turn over in the staff there, eliminating the Cold War-era moles, or cut their power to the point they're nothing but glorified couriers.

They certainly shouldn't have any authority over visas, and everyone in State now and who's retired over the last thirty years should be audited under a microscope to make sure they've not been on the take.

#6 I think screwing with the Tour would be a huge mistake. It's the one thing that would put the population of Italy and France on our side. Therefore of course illogical and thus possible. Also French Grand Prix is this weekend, I figure a Bridgestone inspired terrorist act.

#7 Now if Bush can form the "National Security Service" insde the FBI, then rip it out and let it stand on its own under DHS instead of the Attorney General...

Then we would have something that would work. And the FBI could go back to doing what they do best: chasing serial killers and people who share MP3 files.

#9 chasing serial killers

of course, it would be nicer if they would catch them.
