Is this a good thing, or another layer of window dressing/bureaucracy?

"The FBI has been under fire for what critics have called a cover-up-the-mistakes mentality and a series of missteps going back over the years"

It's almost humorous. Their method of "Cover-up the Mistakes" WE call incineration or burial or murder.

Guess there's a major gap in terminology between the elite maggots in the Congress and FBI and us Normal Folks.

If after the legislation is passed, FBI agents will be able to come forward and tell what they know publicly to Congress and before courts about past FBI/DOJ operations and conduct (not just ones in the future)then it has the potential of being for the good.

However, expect Bush to come out asking the Congressional hearings with Whistleblowing FBI agents to be held behind closed doors like he just did for the 9/11 failure hearings. Also I would expect Bush might veto the Grassley legislation

Is this a concept for a new sitcom?
