Minnesota, which can clinch a wild-card
playoff spot with a loss by either Carolina or St. Louis this weekend, appeared on
its way to retaking the lead. But a holding penalty on Birk -- the Vikings were
flagged nine times for 78 yards -- wiped out a 16-yard run by Michael Bennett that
would have given them the ball at the Green Bay 40 just before the 2-minute warning.

<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>WASHINGTON (AP) -- A long-delayed bill overhaul=
ing the
nation's intelligence agencies is nearing passage now that President Bush =
and
House Armed Services chairman Duncan Hunter have endorsed a compromise
guaranteeing battlefield commanders access to top-secret
information.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>Bush has called on Congress for months to pass =
legislation implementing the September 11 commission's recommendations to =
protect the nation from terrorists. House GOP leaders have been holding up=
the
bill because of Hunter's concerns that it might interfere with the militar=
y's
ability to get vital information.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>But Hunter now supports it because House-Senate=
negotiators added language to ensure Defense officials would have priority=
in
battlefield areas over the nation's spy satellites and other intelligence =
equipment.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>The California congressman had worried that a n=
ew
national intelligence director, a position the legislation would create to=
coordinate spy agencies, would have been able to insert himself into the c=
hain
of command from the president to the combatant commanders.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>House Republicans were meeting Tuesday to put t=
he final
touches on the bill. Lawmakers from both parties expect the bill to pass a=
nd
said its reforms were long overdue.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>"We have not in 50 years changed the intelligen=
ce
system. We've never walked away from the Cold War model," Sen. Jay Rockefe=
ller
of West Virginia, the ranking Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committe=
e,
said Tuesday on CBS' "The Early Show." "We now have a bill which will pass=
both
houses, I hope, that will change the intelligence system and head it in th=
e
right direction."</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, the chief Republic=
an
negotiator on the bill, told CBS that by creating the post of national
intelligence director, the legislation would create "a single individual w=
ho
will be responsible for coordinating our intelligence and who will be
accountable. We've lacked that in the current system."</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Illinois, had r=
efused
to bring the bill up before Thanksgiving because of the opposition from Hu=
nter
and House Judiciary chairman James Sensenbrenner, R-Wisconsin. Sensenbrenn=
er
said he would still oppose the bill in Tuesday's GOP meeting because it do=
es not
deal with such issues as illegal immigration and asylum changes.</FONT></D=
IV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>Bush, in a letter to Congress, said the bill sh=
ould be
passed anyway. "These omissions from the final bill should not prevent the=
Congress from passing this historic legislation now," Bush said.</FONT></D=
IV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>House Intelligence chairman Pete Hoekstra, R-Mi=
chigan,
told CNN on Tuesday that while the intelligence reorganization bill was no=
t
perfect, it is "a good solid step in the right direction."</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>"If we waited on every bill in Washington to ha=
ve the
complete package done we'd never get anything done," Hoekstra said. "This =
is a
good solid step in the right direction, addressing many of the issues that=
will
make America safer, but we all agree this is not the complete and total
package."</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>Even if some Republicans oppose the bill, suppo=
rters in
the House and Senate say they have enough votes to pass the
legislation.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>"We hope that this support will provide the fin=
al
momentum necessary to take intelligence reform across the finish line," Co=
llins
and Joseph Lieberman, D-Connecticut, the lead Senate negotiators, said Mon=
day in
a joint statement.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>The legislation also would cement into law the =
existence of a national counterintelligence center to coordinate the natio=
n's
fight against terrorism.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>Bush had used his executive power to order offi=

Virginia, a government official said.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=3D#eaeaea>Intelligence veteran John Brennan will lead the=

counterterrorism center on an acting basis until the legislation goes into=
effect, at which time the director will have to be officially nominated by=
