Do you know what you sound like, PartyTime "PT Barnum"? A millenium McCarthyite from the left. Think about it.

I think the TV networks are WAY scarier than the CIA.

I am pretty sure that the Republicans installed this guy down there YEARS ago, just in case anything came up, and I am almost sure when the old gentleman left, he was aboard a black helicopter full of black suits. It was one of those silent jobs too!! BTW....you NEVER did answer my question. Do attendees to your parties leave intoxicated? I keep reading you say you do great parties. If you will give me your name and address, maybe we can send one of those copters by for a license check....ya think?

I have an acquaintance in the CIA. He spends most of his time reading material from and about the CIS that is readily available. He also has access to signal intelligence and other high tech means of gaining data, and reports from some human agents collecting stuff on the ground, often as non- professional informants, all in order to figure out what is going on with whatever particular aspect of the situation he is focused on. The spook stuff is very specialized, and highly unusual. Intelligence gathering is about getting information and putting it together. Active measures is a very small percentage of the CIAs budget, and most of it could just as easily be done by non- spy- trained people with the requisite technical expertise. Gore is just as likely to be able to find people capable of mischief as Bush.......
