It's time we throw out the leftovers.
Is anyone surprised?
For a Historical comparison, I do not think the 'Roman Praetorian Guards' shared any intelligence with the local Roman law enforcers. (Unless they needed to tap their 'snitch' database)
People can legitimately complain about alot of things Guiliani has done, but corruption isn't one of them. In fact, he has fought harder than any NY Mayor in memory to root out corruption in NYC. For instance, he didn't back down an inch when he was trying to root the mob out of the Fulton Fish Market. As a result, the only thing the mob could do about his efforts to eliminate their influence was to burn down the Fish Market.
Also, you should do your homework on Tammany Hall. That was a Democratic machine and last time I checked Guiliani is a Republican, so I really can't believe that you would claim that Guiliani would be bringing the 'expertise of Tammany Hall' to the FBI.
Talk about "sleepers"!! I'll bet that the FBI is full of Clintoon/Reno/Freeh dreck.
Directly before the 11 SEP attacks, the FBI was futilely trying to dig its way out of a LaBrea tarpit of incompetence, scandal and Clinton-favoring stonewalling. Then - "Voila!" - they're great again because we were attacked.
Sorry folks, things don't change that fast in a bureaucracy, and that's is exactly what Clinton, Reno and Freeeh made the FBI into, a tame police force.

Excellent suggestion. Rudy would clean up the pink panty wearing, affirmative action oriented, diverisity quilting oriented Clinton/Reno road blocks to having an effective FBI!
The mind set of these perverse/mentally ill FBIers is that Microsoft was more a danger to America, than terrorist from outside. Then re terrorists, the White Male Christian, who served honorably in military service and believed in the first and second amendment was the dangerous terrorist.
To begin with, use lie detector tests on all hired and promoted during the Clinton/Reno era of destroying America. Establish when they are telling the truth or lying. Then ask them to repeat their loyalty oath and oath to protect this country from enemies outside and within! As soon as they show any lying during the new oath, lock them up and investigate them and their files, bank accounts and run a new security check on them!
90% of those hired and promoted from 1993 to Jan 2002, would probably flunk this simple test. If they flunk this simple test, they should be fired, locked up and then investigated for acts of sedition and/or treason against America! Those found to be guilty should be shot as traitors!
We have just found out that Jake Reno banned any FBI investigation of the eco terrorists groups like Alf, Elf, Earth First, the Anarchists operating and living in the open in Eugene and Portland, Oregon!
Robert Novak nails it again.
could not agree with you more. Mueller was one of those Bush appointments made to be pleasing to both parties. He is a bureaucrat, politically correct and obviously slow in getting started. In 6 weeks since 9/11 there has not been one significant arrest or even slowing down of the terrorism happening in our land. Do we have 13,000 agents pounding the pavement like a good NYC Detective would be doing, or do we have a bunch of bureaucrats worrying about being politically correct, holding meetings, more meetings and more meetings while they drink their 8 cups of coffee per day.
We are at war guys. Lets get going!!
