What to Do, What to Do...

It seems that the Bush administration may have broken the law by not keeping the House Intelligence Committee aprised of its activities. And Rep. Pete Hoekstra, R-Michigan, is a might peeved about it, dander up and all:
"We can't be briefed on every little thing that they are doing," Hoekstra said. "But in this case, there was at least one major - what I consider significant activity that we have not been briefed on. I want to set the standard there that it is not optional for this president or any president or people in the executive community not to keep the intelligence committees fully informed of what they are doing," he said on "Fox News Sunday."

Hoekstra complained to President Bush in a letter dated May 18 that was disclosed in Sunday's New York Times.

In the letter, Hoekstra said the failure to brief the intelligence committees "may represent a breach of responsibility by the administration, a violation of law and, just as importantly, a direct affront to me and the members of this committee who have so ardently supported efforts to collect information on our enemies."
So the next logical question is....whatchya gonna do 'bout it, beeyatch? Would someone please grow a pair and hold this administration accountable for their actions?
