Thanks for the star. FYI the CIA was formed shortly after WW2.

NO we would be better off with people not interfering with the CIA and ordering them to come up with anything ..anything at all to support an agenda that they have..whether it is truthful or not. We need better leaders who will take the right actions based on the CIA intel. We need to improve the CIA for the times that we are in. We are no longer in a cold war, we need a CIA that is more of a criminal hunting organization that will track down potential terror threats and the countries from where they eminate.

I like the CIA, they foul up but are so American about it, It kind of helps with comic relief. But if they had the sense to just map and record Osama Bin Ladins major hideouts we would probably have eliminated him , long ago. Better yet, my Dad's generation solution. While he was shooting Russian prisoners and what he named Afghan collaborators, celebrating the end of the Afghan war, just shake his hand and put a quick bullet into the back of his head. Do it with enough force around and no reaction. Just respect in their culture. Like I said the CIA is supposed to operate on practically, not honor. It operates halfway. Which is the problem. Good explanation? He is alive, for one reason, they did not kill him as insurance

No, of course not.
BUT.... It needs a good house cleaning.
There are rouge Democrats in the CIA that have been working against the US.
That's against the law. The CIA is supposed to be NON POLITICAL.
But mole Democrats have infiltrated the CIA, and are committing treason.
Democrats will do anything to hurt the USA.

I'd rather not go without the CIA myself, I feel a little safer knowing someone is out there kicking butt and hopefully taking names.
A trade off loss would be going without the democrat party, I would feel much safer without them around to tell you the truth.

We can't do without it. It would mean the absolute irreversible collapse of mankind. What will happen to the gagillion of people employed by it in some form or another all over the world?

No.
They provide a very important service for this country. Barring all the hate comments and other banter, our country would be in great peril without them.

Without them, "we" would have ceased to exist as a nation a decade or two ago. It is so easy to criticize that which we don't understand-----
