This, they insist, requires a fuller disclosure of the circumstances surrounding each case in order to effectively address documented misappropriation (or lack of appropriation), incompetence, negligence and possible corruption. Doing so will ultimately foster an intelligence and national security apparatus that is effectively committed to the public safety and a government worthy of trust, operating within the bounds of the US Constitution, fully accountable to the American people"

It is up to the people to defend this country, and investigate the issues. Neither Congress nor the administration have been effective, nor does it look like they will be. |
