Security beyond control

There are certainly some legitimate concerns with intelligence gathering post-911, and I do not mean from a civil liberties standpoint as much as cost and efficiency. To the extent this blows the lid off that, it's good. You have to figure the vast majority of people doing that work (as contractors) are like consultants—they're soaking the taxpayer and we get squat for it.

I'd just like to see the exact terms they used to search for, and what contractors they did and did not include (ie: do they exclude all DOE people, etc).
