Help Wanted

Apply to the FBI.

More than 120,000 hours of potentially valuable terrorism-related recordings have not yet been translated by linguists at the FBI, according to a Justice Department investigation.

The report, by the department's inspector-general, found the FBI still did not have the capacity to translate all the terrorism-related material from wiretaps and other intelligence sources, and that the influx of new material had outpaced the bureau's resources.

The report comes as officials in the Bush Administration raise concerns about a terrorist attack before the November 2 presidential elections and as new intelligence indicates that Osama bin Laden is still alive and most likely hiding with other senior al-Qaeda leaders in Pakistan.

Nice going Bushman. Keeping America safe. Bring 'em on. Who cares we can't even keep up with the ones we already had to worry about?

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
