The spooks don't talk do they.
You keeping thinking that it is a CIA conspiracy.

Maybe it is, but that doesn't help the administration much.

President Obama has overall responsibility for CIA.

"No more secrecy. That is a commitment that I make to you as president. No more secrecy" (:40 - :50).


Obama promises transparency in government - YouTube

In the same speech, President Obama said that "When there is a bill that ends up on my desk as president, you the public will have 5 days to look online and see what is in it before I sign it."

Nancy Pelosi didn't get the message.


Pelosi: we have to pass the health care bill so that you can find out what is in it - YouTube

Harrier isn't, and wasn't, Barack Obama's speechwriter.

Harrier would have added one.

Is the president hiring?

Harrier will do it if the money is good enough.

Well damn Harrier! why not. Kidding aside good damn thing, if you were his speechwriter, you would be a terrible one.

Heard one speech you've heard them all. Did not know, looking into the situation, will do my best to keep you inform. Blah blah blah, bull bull bull, not my fault ever 24/7 blame the other guys.

Not me not i, i am saint, the others are evil, yes we have heard it all before a thousand freaking times over.

Obama needs to get over himself.
