I guess we agree.

A logical assessment.

The whole intelligence system needed upgraded and the NSA, the CIA, the FBI, etc., have undergone many changes in the way they handle and share information since 9\11. A new cabinet position has even been created. So, steps are being made.

And people complain about the Patriot Act...but other then waiting a little longer at the airport security area, my life hasn't been affected by it in the least.
