That CIA asshole, I wanted to smack him in the face with a 2 x 4.
Smug, self-righteous, deceptive, and sadistic.

(17 posts)That guy sat there and admitted to criminal acts that got Germans and Japanese hung in 1945 !
What came to my mind:
Why would the CIA let him come on and say ANYTHING?
I guess they/he is not afraid of any repercussions of coming on and admitting he is a war criminal?
Interesting how his main justification was:
'You have to remember how scared we were back then.' <words to that effect...
Wasn't there a day in America when this would be met with public/media outrage?
Won't even be a blip on a radar tomorrow...

I was blown away last night to see the CIA office called George Bush Intelligence Agency or something like that, made me sick.
