The purpose of this hearing was for the purpose of confirming Robert Gates as Deputy Director of Central Intelligence. This hearing was in essence an oversight responsibility of the Committee over the intelligence process in the United States. The effectiveness of national intelligence in support of the policymakers, the conformance of intelligence activity with the law and the wise expenditure of funds invested in collection, analysis, and operation are dependent in the final analysis on the leadership at the top of the intelligence structure. The Committee was charged with assessing the qualifications of Robert Gates to assume the mantel of one of the senior leaders in the U.S. Intelligence Community. While recognizing Mr. Gates' past achievements, the Committee was going to base its judgment on their view of Mr. Gates' ability to perform in this new and challenging role. Not only was Mr. Gates to be responsible for providing direction to the intelligence community as they faced myriad challenges, he was to be personally held accountable for the outcomes.
