Constitutionality of the CIA

[Don Corleone]

The CIA doesn't live outside the checks & balances philosophy. There's a Senate Intelligence Committee, and if Senator Patrick 'Leaky' Leahy would quit divulging 'eyes only' information to the press, they might start hearing what the CIA is up to again.

EDIT: Okay, GC, just read your post closer. You're right, they're not truly accountable. Why? Because a Senate committee meeting has been deemed unsecure. Why? Why can't your Democratic senators abide the law and keep their mouths shut about what they find out?

And I hate to be rude, but it's Central Intelligence Agency, not Counter.
