WASHINGTON -- The top two officials in the CIA's clandestine service have resigned after confrontations with the agency's new leadership in an unusually public shake-up.

--O//--

Porter Goss a total loss?
This is the man who said
Better someone else instead:

'I don't have the language skills. I, you know, my language skills were romance languages and stuff. We're looking for Arabists today. I don't have the cultural background probably,' Mr Goss says on the video.

'And I certainly don't have the technical skills, as my children remind me every day: 'Dad, you got to get better on your computer.'

'So, the things that you need to have, I don't have.'

Porter Goss

So now we see the result
Of the painful Porter Goss assault
Resignations at the CIA
For more idiocy to pave the way

Hardline thinking without the brain
Stupidity institutionalised day by day
If you thought the CIA morale was low
You’ll see it has a ways to go

Bush and Porter Goss are so alike
No education but they are so bull-like
Knowing no facts won’t stop THESE men
Until America reaches the quarantine pen

What clowns run your country
It’s about as sad as it can get
With more incompetence sure to come
With madness on top of debt

Porter Goss is the guy
Who knew he was lost
Not a chance for the job
Except at a cost

Perhaps Bush wanted someone
Even dumber than he
So stick Goss in there
And YOU pay the fee

Wow! Another great write! Good job!
