Former Vice President "in trouble" for keeping CIA secret

It sounds absolutely absurd that headlines are ladden with the latest news of former vice president Dick Cheney being investigating for not informing congress about a top secret CIA operation.
  • Isn't the CIA (Central Intelligence Agency) supposed to have secrets?
  • Isn't that the agency that's supposed to actually have American spies working to protect our interests?
  • Isn't the whole point of a spy to work undercover and not divulge details of their operations?
People are just too high on their sense of entitlement: "But I have the right to know what the CIA is up to", "Freedom of... (whatever)", "Everyone should vote on every move the CIA makes"
Can't take the whiners anymore.
I don't want to hear it.
You are one of the protected, and don't you forget it.
Treasure the oblivion in which you live.
Praise the Lord for even being able to to voice your "discontent" with the system without retaliation; and give thanks every breathing hour that you are lucky enough to live in such an amazing country.
As far as I am concerned, if you are going to just sit there, in the comfort of your suburban spread and bitch and moan about your "right to know" IF YOUR DISCOMFORT with the system is too great, just move.
Move to another country. The grass is always greener, they say.
Take your clan and make up your own tribe, somewhere where you can make your own rules and people will cooperate and follow you as their loving leader.
Move! ~ and come back a few month later. When the shiny newness of ex-pat life has worn and your melancholy consumes you...because your never knew how good you had it here.
