I will not soon forget Jordan's words on July 25, 1974, two days before articles of impeachment of Nixon were approved and sent to the full House: "My faith in the Constitution is whole, it is complete, it is total. I am not going to sit here and be an idle spectator to the diminution, the subversion, the destruction of the Constitution… [As was said at] the North Carolina ratification convention, 'No one need be afraid that [government] officers who commit oppression will pass with immunity.'" Obama and Panetta will have to devote attention to repair work on the CIA at first. But part of that process, sooner or later, will have to include holding accountable those guilty of war crimes as well as corrupting both the analysis and operations functions of U.S. intelligence.
