We don't need none o' that fancy learnin'! We'll just repeat our mistakes until people stop noticing. Besides, who needs someone actually qualified in a boring department like Homeland Security?

I just haven't been sucking up to the right people.
Tara,
What you have is an extreme example of the Peter Principle - one is promoted up the ladder until he/she attains a job that he/she is incompetent to do. And considering the fact that G.W. Bush is a long time victim of the Peter Principle, it follows that he would appoint people that match his level of incompetence.
It's a common problem in many organizations.

I know--it shouldn't surprise me, but it's still disappointing after all the lip service given to security.
Yeah, it disappoints me, too. The only that's been done about security if is a dragnet style, warrantless surveilence of thousands of people without even a suspicion of wrongdoing.
I remember Watergate.
