@giujohn,
There are so many disciplines involved in foreign Intell gathering, people study for years, acquire skills and become target specific experts. These analysts, linguists and target experts and it people are not political appointees and only serve the American people. You don't become wealthy working for the Federal Government, and as far as anyone being beholden to Obama, here's a news flash----Obama leaves office in January------what possible benefit can anyone hope to get? Frankly, since any interference in our elections from foreign governments is considered an Intell fail, you should blame Obama. For the life of me, I don't understand why you would rather pretend nothing happened than investigate and drag Obama thru the mud. You guys are slipping.
