(2004-12-18) — President George Bush’s pick for Director of National Intelligence may have been sworn-in last week at a secret ceremony in an undisclosed location in the hills of West Virginia, according to unnamed sources in the intelligence community.
The identity of the newest member of the Bush cabinet is classified ‘top secret’ under a little-known provision of the 500+ page intelligence reform bill.
“All I can say is that this individual brings a lot of undislosed experience to this important new post,” said White House spokesman Trent Duffy, who refused to categorically deny that the new intelligence czar is either Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, Arizona Senator John McCain or CIA operative Valerie Plame.
Mr. Duffy cut short reporters’ questions saying only, “The new director is bigger than a bread box, but I really can’t give any more clues.”
