From Drug Czar to PR Star

Retired Gen. Barry R. McCaffrey, the Clinton administration's drug czar, has now become a mind-altering substance himself. The PR firm of Fleishman-Hillard has hired him to head its new homeland security practice. "Homeland security" has turned into a gold rush for Washington lobbyists, lawyers and PR firms, with more than 444 lobby registrations declaring an interest in "terror" or "security."
