assets believe capacity congress cut demand demands few frankly funding greater high intelligence intelligence-and-intellectuals intense members number others pay prepared structure vote wrong
Frankly I believe that there's too little funding for intelligence, we have too few assets and too few analysts. And I think if the Congress and others are going to demand a greater capacity in intelligence we're going to have to be prepared to pay for a more sophisticated and a more intense structure of intelligence capabilities, and I think its wrong for some members of Congress to vote to cut intelligence spending, to vote to cut the number of intelligence analysts and then to set unrealistically high demands on the intelligence community.

It's too difficult to carry reforms of that size against the president, so he has a unique burden of having to decide whether or not he can accept that.
