doing its job. 'tis a fine fix we're in ... Dick Dastardly on the

You're discounting the NSA, 7x the budget of the CIA, no "stay out of
this" rules, (they even spy on congress!)  Lots of ex-mil personnel,
usually run by a Colonel or 1star General.

I s`pose this would be a bad time to rant "nuke 'em `til they glow!"?
