DHS Gets Another F in Computer Security...
'The Department of Homeland Security, which is charged with setting the government's cyber security agenda, earned a grade of F for the third straight year from the House Government Reform Committee. Other agencies whose failing marks went unchanged from 2004 include the departments of Agriculture, Defense, Energy, State, Health and Human Services, Transportation, and Veterans Affairs.'

2. YA know, in 2000, the Pubs campaigned on running the gov't like
a business, and promoted Shrub as a great CEO. I actually know a lot of people who think that plan would be a good idea.

The problem is, if ANY CEO had 1/4th the faiures Shrub has had, HE'S BE GONE!!!!!

If the CEO was worth half a brain, he'd have already fired all the failures working for him!

What a damn joke!

4. That could be a good thing. Look where the leaders of Enron are!
Some in prison, and the others in court and heading for jail!

I couldn't think of a better outcome!
