MI Ping

Sorry folks, I know the CIA isn't a real intelligence outfit, but since some think so, I guess this is related to our list. ;-))

The CIA may not have anything to do with intelligence, but it has everything to do with conspiracy. The CIA is at the heart of every conspiracy theory I've ever heard (an unthinkably large number :-) ). Fully 42% of all conspiracy theories feature some form of the statement, "A former director of the CIA said/told me/revealed...". Another 17% of conspiracy theories say that a former director of the CIA was going to reveal the conspiracy, but they killed him before he could talk. In the remaining conspiracy theories, the CIA has the role of a dark, brooding Presence whose evil intentions are taken for granted.

I think the CIA started to go downhill when Jimmy Carter appointed Stanfield Turner as the director.
