Because, the intelligence community thrives on the shadows and secrecy and they have been going nuts for a few years now about these leaks. Their lies, such as Clapper saying before Congress that the NSA was not collecting Meta-Data and now they are saying that we would have accepted these programs if they had revealed them after 911 due to “gaps” despite the fact that we know those gaps didn’t exist and that the NSA knew information about the suspects and never divulged that information to the FBI, keep coming out. With Manning and Snowden they’ve had the light of day shown on them and they are scurrying about trying to cover their butts. Most of our intelligence apparatus needs to be scrapped and re-booted with an eye to the constitution.
