The Director of National Intelligence is an Abject Failure

This paper identifies the critical leadership and management challenges currently facing the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) as leader of the Intelligence Community (IC) and as head of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI).

Comment: ODNI should never have been established. It added yet another layer of bureaucracy and filtration to an already over-encumbered intelligence "community" unable to deliver its product in a timely, meaningful way to the National Command Authority.  Now, there is documentary evidence detailing the failures of the office and an opportunity to undo an error that hinders our national security interests. “More” is not necessarily “better.” This is precisely such a circumstance.

  1. And now, Ms. Roslyn A. Mazer will get to follow-up on the problems @ ODNI as the new Inspector General. See: http://www.dni.gov/press_releases/20090403_release.pdf
