This is good news indeed RTW! (See, Mech and Gas probably didn't think I would agree with this one). I do agree with liberals on occasion.This agency originally had an Illuminati symbol of the all-seeing eye and the pyramid for the logo, with a motto in Latin, "Knowledge is power", but I guess that was too obvious even for government spooks (what were they thinking, the conspiracy nuts wouldn't catch on?), so they took it down. It was a bad idea anyway you look at it, but I have a feeling Poindexter can pull some strings, so this thing may not be over yet.

 I've got to admit, whoever thought that this Logo was a good idea is a complete idiot. Does it get more sinister than this?

Common ground at last. Your right on that one T/S. If they can't fund it openly they'll fund it with black op cash and already are. Told you there was a practical use for all those poppy fields.

See, they will TELL you they are taking it away when the pressure is on them but when no one is looking they implement it.
