Weren't we told the provisions that would have discouraged states from giving drivers licenses to illegal aliens needed to be removed because they had nothing to do with intelligence gathering?
What do BP agents and more beds for illegal alien detention facilities have to do with intelligence gathering?
But that's a somewhat different issue from whether we should integrate our various intelligence agencies so that we actually can focus on what we've learned and do something about it.
We've only read news accounts of what this bill said, and so the jury has to remain out. That won't stop the jury at FR from casting a verdict, but I'll refrain from casting mine at the moment. Based on initial and unreliable evidence, I suspect passage was a good thing.
