In a rare public appearance Wednesday, CIA Director Porter Goss said he is overwhelmed by the many duties of his job, including devoting five hours out of every day to prepare for and deliver intelligence briefings to President Bush.

"The jobs I'm being asked to do, the five hats that I wear, are too much for this mortal," Goss said. "I'm a little amazed at the workload."

They knew this was coming... They always know when someone is about to resign....

9. I said yesterday that if CPN* goes on for hours and hours we will know

that they are 'balancing'. Well, it did. I only heard about an hour OF MSNBC, but about 80% of the show was about Kennedy.

10. Goss got skeeeeeered

Too much coverin up, too many of his political buds using the CIA for political witchhunts, too much corruption to deal with. So hes scared, hes running away from what he helped create.

11. It's hard work keeping all that truth suppressed!

12. It's not so bad when you only have to tell the truth!!

Lying takes a lot more effort - getting everyone "on the same page" is quite a task.

Lying is wrong Porter.
