I always thought that Freeh was a fairly decent guy in an impossible position. He more or less had to follow orders or quit, and he couldn't quit because he knew that if he did clinton would have put in a really corrupt director.
That's what happens when you have a drug smuggling, murdering, draft-dodging, treasonous rapist in the White House. Everyone else gets tainted.
Able Danger is like a dead body at a party... and everyone just walks around it.
I just finished reading Freeh's book and I agree that he is a decent guy. He had and has zero respect for Clinton but I was disappointed in his positive regard for Reno.
I also found his comments about Richard Clark interesting. According to Freeh, the guy wasn't really in the loop. You would never know it by the media adoration lavished on the guy.
