I sincerely wish I had never, ever seen this. It should have remained buried in a deep, dark hole of CIA secrets where it belonged.

Note for the future: Always have the upper hand when dealing with Congress. No matter who you are. You don't necessarily have to use it, but it's comforting to know that you could.
