Insider on the US war against terror

Insider on the US war against terror. Here's a Washington Post interview with Rand Beers, a former National Security Council aide who quit working for Bush to work for John Kerry's campaign.

The administration wasn't matching its deeds to its words in the war on terrorism. They're making us less secure, not more secure,” said Beers, who until now has remained largely silent about leaving his National Security Council job as special assistant to the president for combating terrorism. “As an insider, I saw the things that weren't being done. And the longer I sat and watched, the more concerned I became, until I got up and walked out.”
