too bad they don't know how to edit information in Germany and Italy that has their torturing activities recorded and for which they are indicted.

I think it's good we all have Bush to blame because that seems to mean to so many that there's no problem to solve since Bush is now gone and Obama's aptitude remains intact. However, had Barney Frank and Christopher Dodd not dropped the ball on their watch over the housing industry there may never have been the need to bailout anything. See what I mean? We can all find someone to blame and when we do we dismiss from accountability those who should be held accountable. It really isn't all that important who is or was responsible especially when nothing is done about it. The fact remains that it's Obama's problem now and he's doing a lousy job of trying the fix it.

Initially I thought your question was a joke but when i saw the link it blew me away. Very informative.
Agree with you totally that they could spend their precious time doing more important things than playing around on the web. Its weird that the CIA would do such a thing but then again, it doesn't surprise me.

The funniest(or maybe saddest) part is that people working for the CIA had no idea their identity could be traced???
I'd say either stupity, incompetence or propaganda-they should be fired.

Because one of their jobs is propaganda - let's not forget these are the same people who history has proven lie time and time again so they can do things their way - usually with the Presidents secret approval.

When the government feels you can handle the truth, you will get the truth.
Don't hold your breath. These days, truth is considered communist ideologies, and socialist lies.

Leave it to the good ol' CIA to attempt whitewashing history,
that's what they do, that's the business they are in,
dirty tricks.

It's an important process in rewriting history.
