My life has become a single, ongoing revelation that I haven’t been cynical enough.

I don't get the outrage. The Director of National Intelligence is not over the NSA. He's over the CIA. The Department of Defense oversees the NSA. If someone wants testimony about the affairs of the NSA, they should be asking Chuck Hagel.

Perhaps. All that the ODCI does for the NSA is prepare their budget and a few other liaisive (is that a word?) duties.
