Bush flails on picking comissioners for Committee on Faith-based Intelligence
AP:
Gee, I guess that "Monkey Business" episode won't bother the SICs at all, will it? Then again, we could spend another $70 million investigating.... Oh, wait, this is different... but how, exactly....
Seriously, though, why would any (real) Democrat participate on a commission whose sole and obvious purpose is to get Bush's nuts out of the wringer in an election year?
The White House has not disclosed any names, but among those that lawmakers and others have suggested as qualified candidates are former CIA directors Robert Gates, William Webster and James Woolsey; former Sens. Bob Kerrey, D-Neb., Warren Rudman, R-N.H., and Gary Hart, D-Colo; former CIA deputy director Richard Kerr and Kay.
