You can't fight in here - this is the War Room!
Infighting cited at Homeland Security

Keepin' us safer: "turf battles, personal animosities" and departmental gridlock have the transformed the agency from a color-swatching bureaucracy into the poster child for painful, burning constipation.

As its leadership changes for the first time, the Department of Homeland Security remains hampered by personality conflicts, bureaucratic bottlenecks and an atmosphere of demoralization, undermining its ability to protect the nation against terrorist attack, according to current and former administration officials and independent experts.

Michael Chertoff, Bunnypants' nominee to succeed national embarrassment Tom Ridge, begins confirmation "hearings" today. Jebus, just give him the damn job already - you know you're going to.
