Frankly, I wish I had more confidence in the CIA and the FBI. The FBI has never been all that good. It gets almost all its information from informers, and there are not going to be a lot of informers in Bin Laden's sleeper cells.

Under clinton it spent almost all its energy on politically correct investigations, while virtually ignoring threats from Chinese spying (on direct orders from on high) and from Muslim terrorists, who were almost certainly involved in OKC and TWA 800.

I'm sure the clinton-reno FBI spent many more man-hours--black helicopters and all--looking for one suspected abortion-clinic bomber than they spent investigating Chinese theft of nuclear secrets. Even after clinton left office, there are signs that many of the top people in the agency continue to worry (and leak to the press) more about Christian fundamentalists than CBR attacks.

Amen, worth repeating:
