According to Unconventional Wisdom, Outgoing FCC Chair Michael Powell was overheard talking about National Intelligence Director nominee John Negroponte:
"Powell believes President Bush picked Negroponte because no one the White House wanted to do the job would do it, including Tommy Franks, who said, 'Hell no!' The job of National Intelligence Director cannot be done successfully. All Negroponte will do is 'sit around waiting for the bomb to go off' and then take the blame when it does."
