Solomon's piece delves into the question of whether Congress provided oversight to the government, or whetther their decision not to fully examine recent intelligence activity was itself an oversight. This is one more piece of the puzzle. It hasn't been done before; the fact that it's now being examined is good journalism but this article is years late.

Article was informative, gave some background, and raises more questions. Another part of our system of checks and balances seems to have failed or been subverted. Coincidence?

Nice coverage of yet another example of corruption at the highest levels. When will it end? Seems not until next November.

A scoop for the Post. More evidence of just how badly things are being run by this administration. Notice Dana Perino's response? Not "We'll fix it," but "...the President relies on.." the DNI:not his fault. Bravo Mr.Soloman.

Weren't these the same kind of abuses the Church Committees and other such watchdog groups from the seventies tryint to prevent?
