My Favorite Ex-Spy is Back!

Ray McGovern is back. Leave it to Ray to get right to what's at issue:

Senate skids have been greased for John Negroponte to be confirmed as the first director of national intelligence. Never mind that he deliberately misled Congress about serious human rights abuses in Honduras where he was ambassador from 1981 to 1985.

Good article with insight into how intelligence briefings used to work, should work, and, sadly, how they're going to work with Negroponte at the helm.
