Terry Mauro Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 (edited) I was just wondering if any other folks out there across the vast wasteland of the continental U.S. of A. have heard a commercial on their radio stations being aired by the C.I.A. in a similar vein as The Army and Marine Corp visuals being shown on commercial TV. They're geared along those same lines, encouraging people to join the C.I.A. for a career in "intelligence," as if it were some trade school trying to pass itself off for a college. i.e. I.T.T. or DeVry. They tell you to log on to cia.gov if you're looking for a career with the U.S. government. Since when has the C.I.A. started to recruit from the blue-collar droves? I thought that's what they sent G. Gordon Liddy out on the Ivy League circuit for? To recruit from the supposedly brightest of the elites. The only time I can remember EVER seeing an advertisement for recruitment was back in 1989, in the classified section of the LA Times, and that was a really small ad which required a B.S. degree, if I remember correctly. The only reason I can think of might be to beef up The Homeland Security Force, or might it be to use these "new" recruits as "expendible" moles?

Love you girl. Dawn ****************************************************** Here's an update. Tonight, while driving home, the advertisement is aired again on FM. This time they've upgraded their pitch and changed the name from, a career in the Central Intelligence Agency, to a career in the "Clandestine Intelligence Association. An Agency." Same url cia.gov, though. I'd google it, but I haven't had the time or inclination to do so, as yet. Maybe this weekend. There's got to be a hitch.

Thanks for the warning. Like I really have the time to check it out, to begin with. Well, just thought I'd cruise by after re-newing my Norton subscription, always due in November. And, then on to finish gathering up my things for packing for my trip to Austin. Hey, Dawnie. I see you're up early this A.M. Let me just cruise another couple of threads, then I'm outta here.
