Bush says fundamental changes needed in spy agencies

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- In a scathing report on the intelligence community, a presidential commission Thursday said the United States still knows "disturbingly little" about the weapons programs and intentions of many of its "most dangerous adversaries."

The panel also determined the intelligence community was "dead wrong" in its assessments of Iraq's weapons of mass destruction capabilities before the U.S. invasion.

"This was a major intelligence failure," said a letter from the commission to President Bush.

We don't need good intelligence or science, we just need God. Bush talks directly to god! What more do we need?

The CIA is, and has always been, one of the most bumbling and incompetent intelligence agencies in the world. They're fairly good at what is usually known as "dirty tricks" but their intelligence-gathering abilities truly suck. It's only in the movies that the CIA is portrayed as heroic in some sense.
