I'd love to ask William Casey if the CIA flipped a mathematical operator in the launch code for the Polyus, causing it to break up in the atmosphere rather than launching a nuclear Soviet Death Star with guns and bombs in the hottest part of the Cold War since 1987. I'd love to ask him if we blew up the Soviet pipeline or not.

I'd love to ask Allan Dulles who came up with the idea to hide the U2 and A12 and gawd knows what else in "little green men." I'd want to know a lot about that.

I'd love to ask George Tenet just how closely we were coordinating with Osama bin Laden. I'm not a 9/11 truther; I just know that with bin Laden's media savvy and position within the bin Laden empire we'd be stupid not to have him on the payroll, at least until he started blowing up the Khobar towers.

But I know none of them would answer even if they weren't dead.
