The Dog Ate Our Covert Activity

Yuh-huh:

"The Committee was dismayed at a recent incident wherein the Intelligence Community failed to inform the Congress of a significant covert action activity. This failure to notify Congress constitutes a violation of the National Security Act of 1947."

"Despite agency explanations that the failure was inadvertent, the Committee is deeply troubled over the fact that such an oversight could occur, whether intentionally or inadvertently.

They forgot to tell Congress. The telling of which is required by law. But hey, it happens - ask NixonReaganBush. Fuhgetuhboutit.

And why does it say "Intelligence Community"? Is that DC-speak for CIA, or does it mean something else?
