Comedy Gold! CIA creates the new Wikileaks Task Force... The WTF!!!!!!
Edited on Thu Dec-23-10 12:02 PM by cleanhippie
WTF? OMG, LOL! CIA gives WikiLeaks taskforce naughty name

US spy agency forms taskforce to assess fallout from 250,000 leaked US cables
Adam Gabbatt
guardian.co.uk, Wednesday 22 December 2010 10.27 GMT

The CIA has launched a taskforce to assess the impact of 250,000 leaked US diplomatic cables. Its name? WikiLeaks Task Force, or WTF for short.

--snip--

"Officially, the panel is called the WikiLeaks Task Force. But at CIA headquarters, it's mainly known by its all-too-apt acronym: WTF," the Washington Post reported.

3. FFS, Nearly EVERY post on this board is something that was "already covered"
Make sure you only EVER post just YOUR original thoughts, ok? No reading a news story and then posting about it, ok?

11. Actually I think they do. They tried to recruit my cousin years ago and he knew a lot of them. They
were actually pretty bright people and had a sense of humor, although it was rather droll.

17. I think they must. Consider this story, the source of which
...by definition is someone in the CIA.

Then consider there hasn't been a task force or working group in the last 30 years that hasn't gone by an obscure code name that has nothing to do with the subject. The odds of a task force on Wikileaks being called the "Wikileaks Task Force" is, really, next to zero.

No, I think they have a refined sense of humor, indeed. :D
