To the the Editor:
The U.S. senate's advice and consent on president Obama's nominations of senators Hagel and Kerry is necessary and important. But the conclusions can be foregone; each is eminently qualified to be Secretaries of Defense and of State respectively.

What must be dragged into the light of day--and perhaps killed-- is the nomination of John O. Brennan to head the C.I.A. His--as much as anyone's--is the face of an agency amok, whose agents, officers and contractors are answerable to no law Neither he nor anyone else should be considered for the post of Director/CIA until senator Whyden's request for appropriate congressional oversight is satisfied.
