Some intelligence agency could have hired him as a wacky freelancer because conservatives or someone out there had the goods. They need someone like Smith to get it out.
The more absurd the person - selling a kidney and haunted house on eBay - the better the cover. Undercover types are often oddballs and drifters. They drift around foreign countries, are single and usually nondescript. Instead of wearing Saville Row suits like Bond, they look like drifters. People might say they are losers. Watch Kevin Spacey as Virgil in The Usual Suspects.
He plays a gimp loser but it is all a cover. Yeah you have gung ho muscled ex-Marines operatives to fight but the deeper cover guys are nondescript drifter types. A very famous talk show host was up all night on a “special project” the night Smith had the BC on eBay and the price skyrocketed.
I think everyone in the govt in DC and people who are on inside like a few talk show hosts and a few others know he was born in Kenya. I think something is going on. There could be two big power structures battling. Evil and not so evil. Who knows.
If it is forged it was done by an expert....not a photo shopped conglomerate put together by some kid in his parents basement.
I'd say if it's a forgery it was done by some alphabet agency somewhere in the world, CIA, KGB, etc.
Every time I here MR SMITH, I think....hmmmm which agency is MR SMITH working for?
