Eric CIAramello. haul him in.
I assume they cannot unless the Chairman allows it.
I hope conservatives have learned a few things from this mess. We paleocons have been opposed to the national security state for a long time. Many of us got attacked for being opposed to the Patriot Act and other other such pieces of arguably unconstitutional legislation. We cannot give this much power to executive agencies with black budgets. As long a people are involved, power like this will always attract people of the Macchiavellian mindset. It is a good thing we still have the 2A! Or I fear there would simply be no check on the power of these people. As it is, there may yet be a very limited check.
