Critic resigns from CIA

The CIA analyst who wrote Imperial Hubris under the Anonymous pen name has resigned from the spy agency. The CIA had ordered him to not speak about his views.

Michael Scheuer's book is critical of the administration's approach to terrorism. Although he makes clear in the book that he was no fan of Clinton, he lays out the case that the Bush administration does not have a grasp of the most basic intelligence -- including the stuff that's publicly available on the internet.

Scheuer has been with the CIA for 22 years and appears to be credible. The book is a good read. He's scheduled to appear this week on 60 Minutes.
