Mr. Cole,
You and I will simply have to disagree on this one.
In government, agency heads are sacked for many reasons. The head of the agency is usually fired when the agency itself fails to perform its most important duties. I think that since a sniper was able to get into position and fire at a presidential candidate, wounding the candidate and killing a couple of other people, it is ENTIRELY appropriate for the head of the agency -- whose PRIMARY JOB is to protect the President, former Presidents, and Presidential candidates -- to lose his or her job.
IMHO, the head of the SS should have been fired after the JFK assassination, after the attempted assassination of Gerald Ford, and after the attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan. THIS IS NO DIFFERENT.
So CHEATLE NEEDS TO BE FIRED, AND FIRED QUICKLY.
