Outgoing CIA director tells graduates to help government work

[Rose Siding]

Goss, in remarks prepared for delivery at commencement exercises at Tiffin University, made no references to his unexpected resignation Friday after 19 months as chief of the spy agency. He did tell graduates that they were joining in the responsibility for maintaining the republic.

"I am proud to admit 'I am from government,''' said Goss, who has served in state and federal positions for more than 40 years. "And I want to give you a message: Don't reflexively count on government. Don't fight it either. Help it. Help it work for us -- for all Americans and for all people who cherish freedom.''.....

In his prepared remarks, Goss said that if he were addressing a graduating class of CIA case officers, he would advise them, "Admit nothing, deny everything, and make counteraccusations.''

3. From reading the full article,

I'm getting the impression he's fighting back a little.

4. I'm not a friend, relative, or patron of *, therefore I'm not eligible

for a govt job. I'm also averse to payola, so even less likely.
and the repukes "in charge" have made it abundantly and nastily clear they don't want any "help" from We The People. Sorry, dumb@$$, those power-mad greed-heads who have taken over our country can take sole and full responsibility for their own mess.

5. Ah, but "Recruiting in ones own image leads to self-delusion",

Goss said.

These 'prepared remarks' certainly do seem somewhat charged with sub-text, as post Lars39's #3 suggests.

6. "Admit nothing, deny everything, and make counteraccusations.'' sure

sounds like the play book of the WH.

7. "Don't fight it either."

Resistance is futile. The Borg aka American Multi-Nationals own you.
