New secret spies?

This article is ludicris. It states that Donald Rumsfeld denies the existence of a new secret spy unit, which is under the direct and sole authority of the Secretary of Defense. Of course he denies it! How secret and effective would this unit be if even the fact that it existed was acknowleged? Here goes the press again sticking thier noses where they don't belong.

When it comes to the defense of our country, There are some things that should not be public knowledge. If we are safe and are getting the best possible information and intelligence to keep us safe, I don't need to know how we got the info, or even where it came from. Especially during a time of war.

If this program does exist, and I hope it does. It is intended to gather information for the good of defending our borders. And would be a matter of national security. Not general public information or a news story. That's what I believe.
