… Yet Again: “Bush critics and veteran intel operatives alike were amazed when CIA Director Porter Goss, in a speech at the Ronald Reagan Library last week, apparently said he found his job overwhelming. The embarrassing report only reinforced the belief among some intel professionals that Goss’s tenure has been troubled. The controversy erupted after the Associated Press quoted Goss as saying, ‘The jobs that I’m being asked to do, the five hats that I wear, are too much for this mortal… I’m a little amazed at the workload.’ Goss also reportedly said there was such ‘ambiguity’ in the intel-reform bill that he didn’t know what his official relationship was supposed to be with John Negroponte, the newly named director of National Intelligence.” (Newsweek/MSNBC)
