Another one of Bush's aides is leaving by Corina Ciubotaru

Following a series of departures among Bush's aides, which included Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, top aide Karl Rove and press secretary Tony Snow, homeland security adviser Fran Townsend has also announced her departure in early 2008. Her replacement will be announced before the departure because the President needs the two to overlap, so as not to leave the Homeland Security Council unsupervised in the middle of all the wars where the U.S. is involved. Fran Townsend has led the Council for 4 Â∏ years and now plans to find a job in global risk management, after struggling for months with the decision of whether or not to leave the White House. Her replacement will have a difficult task in making sure no terrorist attacks occur in America during the upcoming elections. Madrid and Glasgow have been attacked after their last elections so the White House advisors want to make sure nothing happens between the vote and the inauguration ceremony. Townsend has not ruled out the possibility of her returning to public service some day, even under the lead of her former boss and mentor Rudy Giuliani. The two speak very highly of each other's work, and the security advisor declared her passion for public service. Still, she apparently needs to take some time off and take care of her two small boys, leaving national security matters in the hands of someone else. Hers is a tiring job that some say should be integrated in the National Security Council, but that she wants to keep separate, in order for the Homeland Security Department to have better communication with the President.
