Katt, the mantra now has changed (as of the talk shows last night) to "we only want to fix anything that went wrong in the intelligence agencies." Here is the problem: If the failure was that the FBI and CIA were not "sharing data," why was that? Because in the wake of Watergate we passed a whole bunch of "reforms" aimed at prohibiting the CIA from "domestic spying." If we turn around and allow the FBI to "share" data and information, it is fine with me, but I have a feeling many civil libertarians will scream bloody murder, because it in essence authorizes domestic spying by the CIA.

Yep, and the Church hearings/"reforms".
