Consequences

What would be an appropriate consequence for failing to predict the 9/11 horrors? Forced retirement? Heads rolling? What about "never being trusted to 'predict' again"? Here's a Wshington Post story about the decision to reject discipline (their headline) for the 9/11 failures.

My fear is that Goss is right -- those people are the finest he has.
