What's the Point?

It seems to me that the inquiry would most usefully focus on how to change the CIA, FBI, NSA, etc. to prevent a recurrence. But to do that, you've probably got to can some people, starting (perhaps) with Tenet and Mueller. Not necessarily because they're to blame, although they may be, but because people below them won't talk otherwise.

Some kind of inquiry has long been necessary, and maybe it wouldn't have been so charged if it had happened earlier. Recall that the White House fought it for a long time.

And I still don't see a good reason for all this to be televised.
