Bush is creating Intelligence chaos on his way out the door.....

The Bush administration starts this now?
A Bush administration plan to issue new orders realigning the chain of command over U.S. spy services has triggered turf-related skirmishes across the intelligence community.....

A spokesman for Director of National Intelligence J. Michael McConnell declined to comment on the revised order but said it was expected to be completed in mid-June.

If this goes forward, it pretty much guarantees the next President begins his term with almighty intel turf battles going on, hamstringing any early efforts towards Al Qaeda and likely making the country less safe. No clear chain of command, and many officials more concerned with internal, rather than external, issues.
