I'm with you ,but to find the reasons where it started really going down hill in the 70s, ...

The history of intel failures and political witch hunts isn't all that relevant. This is a politically motivated fight, not one that actually has all that much merit outside a general election season. Intel snafus aren't a surprise to anyone except the youngest voters who think the CIA/DIA/NEA are like James Bond.

What's important is to have the investigation now, not to let it simmer slowly and come to a full boil in the fall to rouse the Dim voters.

I would expect to see the investigation start ASAP with Dims howling that we need an investigation immediately but at the same time dragging their feet and trying to keep it alive as long as possible.

Bush/Rove's strategy to hold hearings now is quite shrewd. Rove is overrated but not incompetent.
