Moore Posted the Goss Video Today

"I couldn't get a job with CIA today. I am not qualified," the Florida Republican told documentary-maker Michael Moore's production company during the filming of the anti-Bush movie "Fahrenheit 9/11."

"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," Goss is quoted in an interview transcript.

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

4. How about making sure that the media knows about that?
Isn't there a master list with most of the media's email addresses?

I'd like to send a little email to all of them.

5. um... isn't he up for DIRECTOR, not agent?
yes, agents need arab language/cultrual skills and technical abilities.

But the director?

I dunno, this just sounds like Goss was comparing becoming an agent back when he did to now.

7. Not qualified? He's perfect for the * administration!
Cheney, Rumsfeld, Condi, Ashcrcoft, Snow, Perle, Wolfowitz, Feith, etc., etc..... Since when do lack of qualifications and ability stop these people from getting the top jobs in this administration?

Why should this be any different?

8. Micheal Moore- spinal surgeon
it boggles the mind that the Dems are giving this guy a pass. What the fuck is wrong with this party. Bush has handed them a golden opportunity to hammer him on national security issues... and they roll over.

15. HAHAHA! What are they gonna say about this?
I certainly hope Moore makes F/911-2. Or, maybe he can put all the other footage he has on the DVD with updated commentary. The only way to expose them, it seems, is to film everything they say and play it back when they "flip-flop." No wonder the FBI is going after folks with camcorders.
