Are we asking the FBI to do the impossible by on one hand telling them they must prevent terrorist attacks...

That's what I said.

And you could have posted the link yourself . . . I didn't start this topic.

Good grief. You can't even take a joke. Lighten up.

EDIT: I admitted that what I said I was stupid.

Happy now?



EDIT: Evidently, you have a little problem with taking a joke, also.

Have you noticed my sig?



This forum is mostly OPINION.

Anyway, back to your original subject . . . I really believe the FBI probably couldn't prevent the all the tragedies of 9/11. But they do need to be shaken up, streamlined and generally made more efficient. Their "integrity" is intact. But they did 'drop the ball' in their pre-9/11 investigations.

I really don't think they need much more freedom to intrude into ordinary American's lives but do need the ability to gather & share information efficiently when it is warranted - in other words, a judge should be awakened in the middle of the night to give the order to do that wiretap right away without any delay.
