one can only hope that stealth forces in the CIA and elsewhere will undermine this socialist regime now in the White House.

I'd rather hope that the CIA is reformed or replaced with an intelligence service that is capable of doing it's job. The CIA didn't see the fall of the Soviet Union coming, was caught completely unawares by Pakistan's nuclear test, didn't alert us to 9/11, provided bad intelligence about Iraq's nuclear capability and pushed hard for an Iraqi invasion, and then undermined the Bush administration and the Iraqi war effort at every turn.

The democratic process is more than sufficient to get rid of a bad president, and I trust it a lot more than I trust the collection of boobs and scoff-laws at the CIA.

“I’d rather hope that the CIA is reformed or replaced with an intelligence service that is capable of doing it’s job.”

Maybe like the “Freeper intellegence service”?

Thre you go again, believing Leftwingtard propaganda.

The CIA observed, first hand, the rapid drop in the Soviet Union's oil production back in the 1980s and correctly predicted what would happen.

They managed to have that information PUBLISHED in the New York Times although I first read it in SCIENCE magazine where the appropriate factoids were placed by people friendly to the CIA.

One of the first things Boris Yeltsin did was make sure American oil production specialists got a shot at helping repressurize Siberian and Russian oil fields.

Voila, they were repressurized, other fields were opened up with the services of American and Japanese oil engineering firms, and the rest is history.

For several years before the fall of the Soviet Union the fact that the system there was going to fail was WELL KNOWN.
