From the various briefings the CIA and FBI would be required to give to congressional groups? The CIA is not directly controlled by the President, they strive to provide independent information. I'd say they have a moral responsibility (at the very least) to provide congress with accurate information.
But then again, I could be wrong. I've only seen the CIA chief talk to the intelligence committees after the war.
