Get Off Our Ass

Okay, I’ve got to be honest here, this is a fight that I’m almost happy to watch. The only twinge of sadness I feel about this mess is for the agents that are actually on the front lines and the guys that have to show the restraint from actually torturing some of these animal that, in my opinion… really need it. Those guys on the front line are putting their lives every day and I do appreciate those men for it.

Now, that said… The CIA as an organization needs to just go away. Do we really need the DNI, UNDI, the CIA, the NSA, the NRO, the NGA, DIA, IRN, FBI, DEA, ICE, DHS… and a couple dozen other ‘Intelligence Agencies’? If they were that damned “intelligent” we wouldn’t need a couple dozen of them.

So, as much as I’d love to just back and watch the snake fight with leviathan, I don’t know yet if this is just a diversionary tactic to draw attention from that other piece of crap, Healthcare reform; if it’s a ploy to shore up support from his radical base; or if these idiots really do want to undermine our intelligence community.

 Now, option #1 is the easy one… that’s what they’ve been blathering about all day on talk radio. Yes, it may play a part, but I think that the distraction is just a nice added benefit.

Option #2, is probably a bigger part. Have you listened to the airamerica crowd? WOW… I thought they held vitriol like that back for President Bush. Acorn is PISSED. They want their healthcare, they want everyone else to pay for it… and they want it now. Now, I think at this point the hard core Obamanites know that the healthcare takeover is DOA right now… but not gone forever. Like Friday the 13^th and Halloween… it just keeps coming back. So it is a way to stir the pot and keep the masses mad at Bush for a little while longer…

Option #3 on the other hand is the one that I’m leaning towards and it’s the most insidious. First of all, let me point you back to the little comment that Candidate Obama made about his ‘civilian national defense force’. Well, there isn’t a lot for that force to do if we don’t have something tragic happen in the near future. In order for that to happen, those men mentioned above putting their lives on the line need to be stopped.

Is it too much to believe that Obama’s ‘Civilian National Security Force’… aka ACORN… would be ready and willing to help keep the peace after something tragic happens… I mean, we all know all of those rabid right wingers and tea baggers need to be kept under control.
