I think it's time that we as Americans sit back and ask ourselves 'what the fuck does the CIA do?' we deserve an honest answer. During the Cold War talk of reducing the CIA's budget or shit-canning it altogether was heresy. Heresy even though the CIA was the one branch of government riddled with KGB double agents, in fact 90% of Soviet Russia's information on Top Secret American shit was obtained from the CIA, and yet only two CIA agents were ever caught passing such information. How do we know? The KGB files are public, that's how we know.
Recently the CIA has done much, much more harm than good.Did the CIA foresee the fall of communism? No? They were caught off guard and actually suggested it was a KGB trick.How about the fall of the Shah and the Iranian revolution? No? The CIA in Iran only suggested that the Shah was having minor trouble, and then had to engineer a coupe that soured our formerly good relations with Iran. Did the CIA intercept overseas Al Qaeda operatives before they flew jets into the WTC? No? Well, that was a tough one. Korean nukes, did the CIA see that coming? No? Well, you know North Korea is a tough place to get info out of? Iranian nukes? No? The CIA publicly claims that Iran is a nuclear threat while they privately admit that Iran has discontinued it's Nuclear Weapons program. How about Saddam Hussein's WMD's I'm sure they found tons of those after their sources told them where they were? No, damn.
So what the fuck has the CIA been using taxpayer money for??

So why do we bother? So far this decade and the previous decade we got false information that led us into the Iraq war, nuclear stalemate with North Korea and leading us to conflict with Iran. This leaves us to two conclusions. First the CIA is incompetent or Second the CIA is lying. Either way they are doing us no good. I for one think the CIA should immediately be disbanded and the billions of dollars they get should pay for universal healthcare.
The paranoia of the Cold War led to the growth of the nebulous CIA but history has shown that the CIA is often wrong and/or late with any information that might save the lives of Americans at home and abroad. If you watch the movies you'll see that we need British Intelligence to save the CIA's ass time and again.

It's time that we Americans used our brains and started getting rid of the chaff in our government that does nothing but cost us money with no results and the CIA is the perfect place to start. Government should be lean and mean and most importantly serve the people. We aren't being served by the CIA, the CIA is simply a self perpetuating house of lies that seeks to justify it's own existence by 'leaking' information of threats to keep us too scared to realize what a crock of unprofessional shit they are.

We've learned that the CIA has been universally wrong in it's threat assessments, they have broken US and international law with extraordinary renditions and torture and have generally gotten in the way of the FBI investigation 9/11, the bomb attack on the USS Cole and actually arresting terrorists and bringing them to justice.
Far from being useless, the CIA is actually a liability to the United States of America and endangers each and every Americans lives and freedoms every day.
