18. The CIA files would help

Wed Nov 20, 2013, 04:26 PM

Nov 2013

but hey.....5000 pages will not be read now until I die if then and that's 75 years after the fact.

Imagine the power of the CIA by then?

The CIA certainly hasn't been curtained since his death except for the Church committee which gave us FOIA which is now almost useless as compared to when it started.

How many levels of secrecy or classified do you know of?

My DAD knew.

What did Reagan say ?

Trust but verify......
This isn't CT its the issue of transparency.

Oh no.... we might expose a CIA agent from the late 50s........the soviets might find out...

Release the CIA files.
