Obama Has Paralyzed the CIA
Newsmax.com ^ | 4/27/09 | Ronald Kessler

In September 1995, John Deutch, the director of Central Intelligence, bowed to congressional pressure and fired two CIA officials because they had recruited Guatemalan military assets who had been involved in political assassinations.

Inside the agency’s amphitheater, known as the “Bubble,” Deutch then told CIA employees that despite the firings, they should continue to take risks in the service of their country. That brought snickers from many of the clandestine officers in the audience.

Sorry to say, but same goes for Military Officers.

Who would want to work for an administration in-hock to the far left, where a political “gotcha” could happen any time.

Since Obama has royally shafted the CIA, will the CIA engage in a secret war against our rookie president as it did against President Bush? Was the end product of all the negative memos that discredited George Bush’s policies, working to get someone like Obama elected? Since the CIA would not control the leaks under the Bush administration I wonder how they feel about being compromised by the current POTUS?

Beyond belief.

They think the CIA are morons? Tell them where to stick their service to this country.

At a time when al-Qaida is plotting to wipe out America with nuclear weapons, the president has paralyzed our first line of defense.

That was his intention all along.

Obama is a traitor mole. There is no other explanation for his past and present actions.

I believe that Congress and the USSC are traitors as well.
