"The CIA did not exist until after WWII."

Yes, of course, which is why any suggestion that the "CIA" was helping Chi-Coms during the 1930s is so utterly ridiculous it's beyond response.

But I was trying to be a nice guy, and not insult the IQ of our worthy poster, Quix...

Factually the assertion about the "CIA" might not be correct, but the sentiment itself is most definitely correct - the very same Communists who riddled the FDR & Truman administrations, and who helped Mao rise to power, are indistinguishable from the Valerie Plame / Joe Wilson / Foggy Bottom types who are working so diligently to bring down the Bush administration and to promote the causes of nihilism, statism, and Islam.

The names may have changed over the course of the last century, but the methods & the ends are the same.
