Delay Blasts FBI
Director Robert Muller For His...Well, Delay
Poor leadership equals poor
results

FBI misdirector
Robert Mueller
Tom Delay blasted the FBI as
"running amok" in their investigation of him and his wife. Delay says he has
submitted all that was required of him and the FBI is dragging their feet. Seems
to be a common theme with Mueller. He clearly cannot manage the FBI, nor can he
run it properly. Untimely equals unethical.
I don't blame Delay for slamming
these constant, untimely cases under Mueller's direction, or should I say,
misdirection. Under Mueller's agenda, which has clearly been shown numerous
times to be according to his pleasure and not what is in the best interest of
the country as a whole or its citizens, the FBI has become known for negligence
and drawn out, wagon circling investigations that prolongs members of the
public's despair and losses.
The mere fact that you cannot
complete investigations in a timely fashion, with many of your investigations
being so "sloppy" that the DOJ can't do anything with them, says you need to
step down.
All you've done is make the once
esteemed FBI the butt of many jokes within the country and the laughingstock of
the international community with the billion dollar computer system failure
fiasco and the high profile misidentification of several terrorists subjects.
The agency once had a level of
respect and reverent fear attached to it. Now everyone is pimp slapping you and
the FBI (because of you) writing incendiary, facetious articles and posts.
Myself included. Google it and read all the articles by many writers and bloggers all over the world, chronicling how far the agency has fallen under
your poor leadership. You've brought an air of
incompetence, injustice and ineptitude to the FBI that won't soon be repaired,
especially with you there.
Every time Mueller gets a spate of
bad press, he orders new arrests and announces a terrorism bust. He did it with
the arrest of the Miami Seven and now a group of people in New Jersey that were
allegedly planning an attack on Fort Dix.
However, let's be honest here,
while malevolent, these jokers he's locking up aren't the real deal. These
aren't the bonafide terrorists, who fly airplanes into towers and blow up towers
and embassies.
These are goofy terrorist wannabes.
And let's face it, the credit for the latest bust, in a case you inexplicably
let linger for 17 months, on taxpayer money that you have shown a great
propensity for wasting, was due to the dude at Circuit City calling in the tip.
The credit should go to him.
Yes, it is good that they have been
arrested, but what concerns me is you keep catching these jokers and not the big
fishes. You clearly can't do the job. Step down and give it to someone who can.
"WASHINGTON Since 9/11 the FBI's image, once almost invulnerable to detractors,
has taken one hit after another beginning with evidence its officials ignored
signs that might have derailed the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center
and the Pentagon and ending with the abuse of so-called national security
letters that permitted them to poke around with impunity in the affairs of U.S.
citizens.
In between were
revelations about millions of dollars wasted on faulty computer systems;
misidentification in the Spanish bombing case; continuing complaints of lack of
coordination with other agencies, and high-profile counter-terrorism arrests
accompanied by flamboyant claims that ultimately raised questions about their
actual seriousness and whether or not they were at least partially rooted in
self glorification.
There seems little
doubt that the tarnish to the bureau's image and the inability of its slickly
professional and politically wise director, Robert Mueller III, to overcome much
of the criticism has caused increasing concern in Congress and the public about
the agency's effectiveness." - The Press of Atlantic City, May 10, 2007 |
