Connecting the Dots: Bush Signs Intelligence Reform Bill

President Bush Signs Intelligence Reform Bill into LawPresident Bush finally signed into law the long-awaited intelligence reform bill but has yet to name the new national intelligence director - at least, the CIA's new chief Porter Goss is out of the running - he's been cleaning-house in Langley.

The bill's sponsors emphasized that the legislation is just a first step as many 9/11 Commission recommendations remain unfulfilled, including doing more to prevent WMD proliferation, improving diplomacy in the Muslim world, and rethinking U.S.-Saudi relations. But, at least this move could help in the pattern recognition department.
