Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for February 22, 2010

They’re going to an Afghani wedding? Better watch out for an airstrike! (I kid! Really!)

Well if he really wants Redfern to look like a merc, he should have him take off the native look and put on something to achieve the “blackwater thug” look.

I love the irony of having a “CIA” company car. In the 80’s the spooks passed off as technicians and assistant ambassadors and what-not’s at the embassies. I actually met James Woolsey when he was using such a cover in the 80’s.

I love all these colorful terms that we come up with to end somebody’s life…..

take ‘em out light ‘em up bust a cap in his bleeep blow ‘em away

makes it seem like fun!

This explains so much

I can see where this is going……. at the wedding a loud BOOOM and Jeff becomes chief of station……

Hey, they might as well ride around in marked cars. If not, Cheney and his fledglings will out them anyway.

I can hear the response, “But, Cheney isn’t in office anymore.” No, but from statements made by him recently, he still has connections to the Pentagon, CIA and probably the White House.

If we’d thanked them for their part in the end of the Soviet Union, we’d have had less trouble since.

potr: the embassy staff thing was a real joke. Natives kept track of who did what for the embassy and then, when they found the guy who did virtually nothing,,,BINGO, CIA. We do the same with every foreign embassy here but they at least have him drive a car and LOOK like he’s got a purpose.

Hopefully, they’re not on the Kabul Gorge Highway, or they may be the ones lit up.
