Do you not think it's just a wee bit disfunctional to have State, DoD and the CIA all openly fighting with each other? Do you not think a President who was just a little bit more in command of the situation wouldn't tell them to cut that shit out and get on the same page? This shit has been going on since Day One.

Maybe its an homage to Reagan. He was similarly detached from the day-to-day operation of his government, and you had the same fights, particularly over foreign policy. It was Cap vs. George instead of Rummy vs. Powell.
