It could be possible but, barring any evidence to that fact I personally doubt it. I have a good friend, well a mentor, who is close personal friends, (eats at each others houses and when he is in Washington D.C. he stays at the Senators house instead of a hotel), with a ranking member of the Senate Intel Committee. From waht I've been able to gather the Sentate Intel Committee recieves the same briefings as the President, if not daily at least weekly.

As I said in my PM I beleive the CIA after hearing so much grief about not conecting the dots before 9/11, tried to conect any dot they could even if the dots didn't go together. The CIA needs more people on the ground so they can use that intel in conjuction with their electronic intel. Even then the best they can do is probibly get it to 90%, that's a personal guess, since I'm not in the Intel community.
