Previous FBI scrutiny, you know the history and the fear. I’ve heard about it all my life, haven’t you? Covert operations, spying, tailing, surveilling, snooping, even trash can diving, in the name of national security. Name calling, witch hunts, purges, McCarthysism, John Birch Societyism, Nixon’s enemy list, the whole bit and it’s going on now big time. Meanwhile, what kind of panties is the FBI director wearing or sniffing? It will come out some day in some tell all, who snooped on who. These things have always been this way and we have avoided being taken over so far, and now you tell me the threat’s too great, to not only America, but Western Civilization? Too much! I’ll leave you alone.
So what is your position on whether we ought to have a Federal Bureau of Investigation? Is the ratio of its problematic traits to its postivie contributions so heavily weighted that we ought to shut it down?
Shut it down? Certainly not! Like the UN, they sometimes take things too far. Merely a human foible, humility, honor and tolerance in larger doses might help us all here as antidotes to fear and loathing.
Herman Goering, commander of the Luftwaffe in WW II, was also a crossdresser and partial to silk nightwear.
To get back to the original point of this post, it’s a supremely bad idea to have an FBI agent going to this gathering as a speaker, and it makes you wonder if our government has lost its focus regarding pressing on to victory in this current world war.
He had to be doing a finesse. That’s the way to do it. Just like Annapolis. Kill ‘em with kindness. There are sickos in the FBI and CIA, of course, despite their excruciating screening efforts, go figure? I saw an interesting flick last year about Robert Hanson. The story of Eric O’Neill’s role in the capture of Robert Hanssen was dramatized in the film Breach, released February 16, 2007, in which Chris Cooper plays the role of Hanssen and Ryan Phillippe plays O’Neill. Hanssen also was the subject of a 2002 made-for-television movie, Master Spy: The Robert Hanssen Story, starring William Hurt as Hanssen. Robert Hanssen’s jailers allowed him to watch this movie, but Hanssen was so angered by the film that he turned it off. In the high school halls, in the shopping malls….

More germaine than tailing MLK’s wife after his assassination, oh the paranoia, oh the fear. I suppose, though, it saved us from the Russians coming.

Whatever that has to do with anything.

I never said to shut it down. Did you say to shut down the UN?
