Once More Unto The Duh Zone

NO QUARTER: A New Intelligence Failure?: "A New Intelligence Failure?
by
Larry C. Johnson
There she goes again. Miss 'Who Could Have Imagined an Al Qaeda Attack' Rice has struck again. Are you kidding me? Secretary of State Rice was 'surprised' by the election results in Palestine? According to the New York Times:

Ms. Rice pointed out that the election results surprised just about everyone. 'I don't know anyone who wasn't caught off guard by Hamas's strong showing,' she said on her way to London for meetings on the Middle East, Iran and other matters. 'Some say that Hamas itself was caught off guard by its strong showing.'

If she is saying that the no one at the CIA, the State Department Bureau of Intelligence and Research, or the Defense Intelligence Agency had a clue that something like this could happen, we should immediately dismantle the intelligence community and start over. I find it difficult to believe the system is that broken. We should learn in the coming days whether or not the intelligence analysts really did miss this."

[expletive], even I knew Hamas was going to win. How? I read the [expletive] newspapers. I read Google news. [expletive] I even do searches on the Internets! Folks, the lunatics are not only in charge of the nut house, but the morons are in charge of the school. (You're doing a heckuva job, Brownie, Rummy, Condie...)
