Senators rap FBI over domestic spying - Yahoo! News:

Senators frustrated by scant details on the Bush administration's domestic eavesdropping program on Wednesday rapped FBI Director Robert Mueller for refusing to show how it has curbed terrorist activity in the United States.

Mueller said he was unable to talk about the warrantless spying program because it is classified.
'What assurances can you provide that the program is worthwhile?' asked Senate Judiciary Chairman Arlen Specter, R-Pa. 'Have arrests been made? Have terror cells been broken?'

The FBI has briefed congressional intelligence committees on the controversial program, but Mueller said he did not have permission to share that information with other lawmakers — including the judiciary panels that oversee the bureau.

'I am prepared to brief whichever committee, to the extent that I am allowed to,' he said.
