This is thoroughly disheartening. Just when people are beginning to think of innovative ways to gather and coalesce intelligence information, politicians shut them down for a few seconds of media time.
This was one of the most interesting and bold experiments in intelligence that I've heard about, and it's been shut down for no good reason but misplaced moralizing.
Hillary, if you want to prevent innovation in intelligence techniques, go do it in a country we don't like.
Afyer spending a tour in Vietnam, during that time our artillery ammo dipped below a 30 day supply in the I Corp area.

I expect no less from Congress. After all they are not in harms way!
