This will be an interesting few days in politics, as State Dept accidentally emailed a report that basically says that the Senate is correct in their assessment of the CIA. It seems like two major arms of the executive branch are not getting along so well (and haven't been for years, as ambassadors to countries where renditions were taking place were told not to report up the chain of command). I don't think that Brennan should survive this. Even if he knew nothing, he still went on Capitol Hill and indignantly accused a prominent senator of being out of line when she was 100% correct. That's inexcusable.
