PBS News hour: 911 commissioner rejects Bush not giving budget control
to Nat'l Intel Person

Says a coordinator (as the CIA head is now) will not accomplish the 911 commission goal

Later on Hardball Adrea Mitchel says she thinks he can get away with the con because folks won't pay attention (implying the media will not push or disclose or even reprint 911 commission objections enough times to make a difference).

I think Kerry has one hell of an issue here!

(no link until tomorrow when News Hour transcript is up)

1. This could be BEAUTIFUL
Some of those intelligence votes, it was because there wasn't Congressional oversight of these budgets and he thought they weren't spending the money correctly. He wanted less gadgets and more humans. This could be the slam dunk. I hope this campaign doesn't let it slip by.

2. Yeah, Mr. National Security vs. Mr. Balanced Budget
Then there's Mr. Control Freak who doesn't want anyone as irrelevant as the 911 gang telling him how to run a country.

Go get em JFK.
