Tagged: border, Silvestre ReyesPosted on: December 19th, 2006“House Speaker-designate Nancy Pelosi recently chose Texas Representative Silvestre Reyes to take over as chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence next month. Pelosi boldly stated, “For the first time in six years there’s going to be some checks and balances. We will see true oversight and real consequences.”
First and foremost, intelligence must continue to be an exceptionally vigilant security and intelligence system. Better understanding of modern intelligence through appropriate disclosure of its functions, resources, limitations, and product should be discussed in the U.S. political arena. However, secrecy must be respected and protected.”
