National security
In order for policy makers to have the information they need to make informed decisions, they need facts. They get facts and analysis from the intelligence community. This analysis is not biased. It is a result of the work of trained experts who look at information gathered from a number of different sources, including the operational side of the CIA. They then analyze issues based on the information gathered, as well as years of experience examining issues affecting US national security. If the validity of analysis (which is different from how it is applied) is called into question, ignored, or only used to justify a policy decision, rather than inform a policy maker, it undermines the work of the intelligence community.
