The level of debate in D.C.

Prepare to be frustrated by the level of intellectual thought in this debate.

The Washington Post:

Stephen Hadley, the National Security Advisor, said on NBC's Today Show and on ABC's "Good Morning America," that Hayden is a "change agent," the "best person" for the job, "the right man at the right time."

Republican chairmen of the House and Senate intelligence panels raised serious concerns Sunday about Hayden, whose name surfaced for the job immediately after the abrupt resignation of Porter Goss on Friday, with Rep. Peter Hoekstra (R-Mich.) calling him "the wrong man at the wrong place at the wrong time."
