in retrospect, it is clear, as the sisi report concluded that cia was not prepared to conduct a detention and interrogation program. today, the u.s. government has a clear legal and policy framework that governs detentions and interrogations, specifically the law provides that no individual in u.s. custody may be subjected to any interrogation, technique, or approach that is not authorized by and listed in the army field manual. i fully support the detainee treatment required by law and just as importantly i will keep cia focused on our collection and analysis missions that can best leverage the expertise we have at the agency. like i said, we learned important lessons following 9/11. as both a career intelligence officer and as an american citizen, i'm a strong believer in the importance of oversight. simply put, experience has taught us that cia cannot be effective without the people's trust. and we cannot hope to earn that trust without the accountability that comes with congressional oversight. if we cannot share aspects of our secret work with the public, we should do so with their e
