Wasn't this "Department of Homeland Security" debacle Joe Lieberman's idea? Isn't the US government a wonderful place, where people fall up?

<i>McCain said that Lieberman told him that he is “tired” after 40 years in public service...</i>

Exactly the qualities we should be looking for in a Sec. of Defense.
