New Domestic spy service and "takings" Executive Order

I don't know if these two things go together, but they're both weird and both Friday dump. Here's the Executive Order called "Protecting the Property Rights of the American People" which in Bush speak means that it's probably about taking property, but I can't make heads or tails of it.

And then this BBC article.

US President George W Bush has ordered the creation of a domestic intelligence service within the FBI, as part of a package of 70 new security measures....

The authorities will also be given the power to seize the property of people deemed to be helping the spread of WMD.

Also in this article, there is mention that a new FBI office will be created for "intelligence work within the US, and combine the Justice Department's intelligence, counter-terrorism and espionage units."

Finally, I guess Rumsfeld's DoD wasn't doing such a good job on the intel turf they tried to claim (See Somalia.) "Giving control of all overseas human intelligence operations to the CIA."

I don't know what to make of all this, but something tells me this is important, and the fact that they're pushing it out late Friday under the "big" terror arrests and banking records story doesn't help.

UPDATE: Reuters explains the EO. According to White House Spokeswoman Dana Perino, the RO was about limiting the use of eminent domain for purely economic purposes relating to the court case a year ago where private property was taken for economic development.

Okay, but this would be popular among the fleeing libertarian wing, so why is it in the Friday dump? And, has anyone else noticed that Dana Perino, rather than Tony Snow, answers all questions that seem to require actual knowledge?
