Porter Goss' Admission to Michael Moore re: CIA

"I couldn't get a job with CIA today. I am not qualified. . . 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."
Boy, that makes you feel confident, doesn't it?

I don't believe Goss is the worst choice. He is, however, a political choice rather than the best choice. He's been most happy to go along with Mr. Bush, never raising any dust to sully the president's mood, and that is not something that will benefit the American public in a CIA chief.
