I don't think I grasp your simile; what is the argument about an innocent schoolyard kid with limited power to harm? Are you just implying that congress has an apparently limited ability to affect USG Intelligence operations through oversight, or are you saying something more than that? Do you think the executive branch/intelligence community should be actively surveilling the legislative branch? I'm not understanding what you're saying here.
