Maggie's Farm

Before my preeteen years I was aware of national and world politics. When your father fights the countires battles you learn quickly who is with you and who is not. At 59 I have never known the Democratic Party to be anything but socialist and anti American.
Buddy mentions the Church Committee and the post Watergate CIA hearings. I was active CIA then and watched as the Democrats score political points at the expense of this countries security. The man who testified, William Colby, the DCI (Director of Central Intelligence) was forced to give away what we called the "family jewels". I'd been decorated by him personally and knew of his courage in the OSS, parachuting inot France during WWII to set up French resistence. He was a good man.
Korea and Vietnam showed that the Democrats have no spine for battle. They are a fifth column within our country. In their forty years of controlling Congress prior to 1994 they managed to aid in the infiltration of the State Department with pro Soviet puppets. They abandon our Vietnamese allies in the same manner they are preparing to do in Iraq..cut off funding. The price to be paid will come later in the turmoil that will follow.
LBJ's suspicious congressional win in 1948 (see Robert Caro's extensive 3 book volume on LBJ) and the infamous ballot box #13 (http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1282/is_n8_v42/ai_8370024)
to JFK's 1960 victory over Richard Nixon and the missing voting dead Democrats votes in Cooke County , Ill, then under the infamous Democratic Mayor Daly, ( http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=425967

I could write a book but you get how I feel about Democrats. They feel the same about Republicans ...it is becoming more than just a ballot box issue.

Post Script: William Colby was a master sailor yet died under highly suspicious circumstances in the Potomac River right next to his home.

No one in the CIA that I knew believed he died of natural causes.

Luther,
I'm sure there are moles and traitors in all US Agencies and Departments. I say that because throughout history there have always been those who would do such things.

Some is overt, such as former Speaker of the House Jim Wright who helped pen the "Dear Commandante" letter to Daniel Ortega and the Sandanistas in an attempt to undermind Reagans foreign policy. Foreign policy is the exclusive domain of the Executive Branch but it didn't stop Wright & Co. treachery.
The covert we hopefully find out about and either "turn", torture or trade. There is a very old acronym one learns in training MICE, for identifying people vulnerable to recruitment M=money I=ideology C=compromise E= ego
