John Negroponte: Jack of All Trades

..What's up with this? I not sure whether it's a bad choice per se, but does the Bush Administration know of any other qualified people? Oh, you don't know what I talking about, do you?

From the BBC:
President George W Bush has nominated John Negroponte as
the first US director of national intelligence. [...]Mr Negroponte became US
ambassador to Iraq in July, after having been his country's envoy to the United
Nations. There has reportedly been little discussion of who will replace him in
Baghdad.

From UN ambassador to Iraq ambassador to intelligence chief. Every time the White House has a difficult position to fill, it seems Negroponte is the guy.

How being an ambassador makes him the best intelligence chief is a bit iffy though.

I don't like the looks of this one at all...
