[bodytext] => 9/11 panel dismayed by Bush's reaction INTELLIGENCE CHIEF: Director needs real clout, members say Republican commissioner John Lehman, a former Navy secretary who has been seen as a possible replacement for retiring CIA Director George Tenet, ... urged the president to reconsider his proposal to base the director outside the White House. The commission recommended establishing the position within the White House to keep the director from being overshadowed by powerful Cabinet members, such as the defense secretary. "Our recommendations are not a Chinese menu," Lehman said. "They are a whole system. If all of the important elements are not adopted, it makes it very difficult for the others to succeed." O/ It’s not a chinese menu Mr Bush The 9/11 men have spoken Though it seems you’re still dreaming And havn’t yet awoken You think it was all for nothing? The threat of terror is real You don’t seem to help at all You just drag your heels Are you really that braindead? Are ALL your promises broken? What about the families of the dead Will you give them just a token? This man can’t organise a thing He doesn’t have a clue The commission worked for so long What they said he doesn’t do Perhaps you think there is some risk You’ll lose the power you stole By granting independent intelligence They will go out from your control You want them to back up your lies Whenever you need them to Don’t think you can fool us all again Your backers now are few Give the intelligence chief The powers that he needs To organise the protection Of America from foul deeds For if you don’t We will be asking why YOU should stay protected Causing OTHERS then to die…?
