Obama worked for a CIA front company, page 1

Wayne Madsen reveals that Obama worked for a CIA front company (Business International Corporation) right after school, and then traveled to Pakistan.

His sponsor in Pakistan was a US ally who had ties to the mujahadeen in Afghanistan. This was the time when the mujahadeen were US allies.

It seems that Obama may have traveled to Pakistan on a foreign (Indonesian) passport.

It is well documented that Obama worked for Business International Corporation

I've given up on the "birther" scene, it's a bunch of nutjobs in the spotlight with no real results. Fine..

But, the opposition always says, "Obama had to have been vetted by {insert acronym here}" to get where he is.

Well if that's the case, WHY is it that this information which was presented, was NOT presented in it's "proper" light?

HOW did this man fool so many people to become President???

Yep... he worked for BIC and made a trip to Pakistan in which he will not talk about... Oh yeah: BIC is a front for CIA.

I believe I have also read that his Mother has ties to the CIA as well...

Here's a link: Don't really know how credible it is though, but it's an interesting read non-the-less. Will have to dig more on it.

Do you ave reading comprehension problems? I clearly stated what I was asserting inthe Thread Topic, that Obama worked for a CIA Front company.

Your attempt tp distort what I actually said, when it is a few mere posts above you is disingenuous.

Try going back and actually reading what I wrote in the OP and then ask some real questions, don't waste my time building strawman arguments

No comprehension problems here. You clearly tried comparing the reactions to Bush's C.I.A. leadership to the reactions regarding this claim, as if their "C.I.A. connections" were somehow on the same level (deserving of the same "HUGE uproar"). Your attempt to distort those two into somehow deserving of the same "HUGE uproar" is what's disingenuous.

First, "CIA front companies" are still companies with humdrum employees going about everyday boring business. Without such, they wouldn't make worthwhile "fronts" for operatives doing actual clandestine work. Again, one of your own sources states "According to a lengthy article in the New York Times in 1977, the co-founder of the company told the newspaper that "Eldridge Haynes [the other founder] had provided cover for four CIA employees in various countries between 1955 and 1960"." Clearly this occurred before Obama was even born; so he certainly wasn't one of these four men.

Second, half of your sources make no mention of any C.I.A. connection to BIC at all. If this is the angle you're trying to push, then choose more sources that actually support your insinuation.

Third, Wayne Madsen states, about BIC, "It was later determined that this company had very close ties to the C.I.A." after mentioning that Obama worked there in 1983. "Later determined" seems to be an odd claim when the NYT reported a '55-'60 "connection" to the C.I.A. in 1977; so it was reported a full 6 years prior to Obama even working there. He also cites no sources regarding the word-of-mouth "Indonesian Passport" claim.

If you're trying to push some sort of Obama/C.I.A. connection, then you'll need to do a much better job. All of this seems pretty shabby in regards to evidence. It seems your best bet would be to try and focus on the '81 Pakistan visit, and who he met with. Incidentally, that would have been a year before Regan actually dedicated the Space Shuttle Columbia launch to the mujahideen “freedom fighters”; so maybe Obama was ahead of the game.
