Can't be done. Public and secret key are two sides of the same coin (or 
whatever the idiom is in English). The one depends on the other. Else, 
who'd you expect a message encrypted with the public key to be 
decryptable with the secret key?

However, the terrorist attack on the United States largely resulted
from the failure of the current intelligence infrastructure -- already
the beneficiary of the highest intelligence budget in the nation's
history. Washington's traditional approach of throwing money at the
problem to make it go away will not prevent a similar occurence in the
future. Fixing the problem, not funding it, is clearly the answer.
