Exactly.
The CIA is riddled with libs, and they know how to work leaks. They will work hard to retaliate for a witch hunt.
Unfortunately, I think there may be covert operatives perishing as a result of deliberate upcoming exposures.
By your name, I infer that you know a bit about the CIA. I am merely an amateur.
So my first question ... This seems like an existential battle here. Can the CIA exist as an effective organization with a mission, strategy, core competency, etc., under the sort of scrutiny/governance/intrusions that Obama is pursuing?
My general sense is no, but I am no expert. I would appreciate your opinion CIApilot.
Second question ... If this is an existential fight, am I correct in assuming that the CIA will do what it must to ensure its survival?
I understand the need for an intelligence agency, and one that sometimes does nasty work. But I am afraid, as well, especially when it is populated by the ilk that presently run the show. There is a temptation to be giddy at the prospect of Obama and the CIA libs pounding each other. But even a moment’s reflection suggests that no real good can come from this.
Am I right?
