FBI Director Robert Mueller Is Paranoid

FBI Director Robert Mueller

In a Reuters article featuring a very strange press quote, a representative for FBI Director, Robert Mueller, implored the PR spokesperson to, "Stop the rumors about me leaving."

I Googled this topic and did not find any rumors regarding Mueller quitting. Is he getting paranoid or is he just plain crazy (or both).

I have it on very good authority that there are members of Congress that have grown weary of him and deem him "An embarrassment to America" due to the Patriot Act abuse scandal, spying on journalists, misusing a terrorism private jet, the computer system fiasco and botching cases such as Bruce Ivins, which resulted in a terrible, preventable suicide.

However, I've not heard any rumors about him quitting, nor is there anything in the public domain to that effect. Is he scared of getting fired after the election.

As I see it, he's committed enough felonies during his tenure at the FBI to qualify for a cell...under the jail. Somebody send him a copy of the Constitution and the U.S. Code to hang in his office, to prick his conscience, if he has one, each time he flagrantly breaks the law, as in the aforementioned incidents.

FBI chief to stay on under new president, aide says

Wed Oct 22, 2008 1:05am EDT - WASHINGTON (Reuters) - FBI Director Robert Mueller, a leader of the Bush administration's fight against terrorism, intends to serve out a 10-year term and has sought to quash rumors he would soon quit, a spokesman said on Tuesday.

There has been speculation Mueller would leave during the presidential transition following the November 4 elections. "Stop the rumors about me leaving," spokesman Richard Kolko quoted Mueller as telling aides. He said Mueller made clear he did not intend to leave until his single term expires in September 2011...

However, he later supported granting immunity to telecommunications firms that took part in the eavesdropping. A Justice Department inspector general's report last year also faulted the FBI for widespread misuse of so-called "national security letters" to demand records about individuals in terrorism investigations.

The bureau has frequently been criticized for lagging in technology, and it was embarrassed by a government audit that found a telephone company cut off an international wiretap for failure to pay the bill.
