Perhaps there is a way for the Bush government to improve its analysis of intelligence.
Stop hiring oil executives to do it.
PFIAB, the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board, is a group of appointees who advise the President on all intelligence matters. They have access to ALL top security information, and are expected to give expert and objective advice concerning it, and how well the various agencies are giving it.
Oilman Ray Hunt, financier William DeWitt Jr., Netscape founder Jim Barksdale, and former Commerce secretary Donald Evans are all members of the current PFIAB. THESE are intelligence experts? These are the men Bush depends on to decide whether a CIA report is worth the paper it's written on?
