Unqualified for FBI
« on: November 19, 2008, 12:46:35 PM »
I heard part of an interview with a former FBI agent yesterday who claimed that had Obama applied for a job with the FBI instead of running for president, he wouldn't have made it past the screening process.  His application would have been rejected in the first round. 

Amazing.

Any other year and this man would have never made it past January. Many things came to fruition for this to happen. In a country where the media is supposed to be there to inform the people, we got duped.

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Yes.  And, unfortunately, most of the voting public who came out of the woodwork this year are dupes before any influence from the MSM.  Just watch that video that was posted yesterday in this Forum (ref. "Ignorance is Bliss").

If Obama was a government employee or serviceman in DOD, he would never be given a security clearance. So, that is what I would assume the interview you heard referred to. I would guess most employees in the FBI must have at least a secret clearance. So, if they are interviewing Obama and I'm sure they ask where his parents are from, Obama would get the prompt "Ok' that about wraps up my questions, we'll call you soon".

I've known several individuals in the Army who have a parent that is a naturalized citizen, it is almost impossible for them to obtain a clearance. Or if they have a parent that is not a citizen equals no clearance.

I believe that they would need a Top Secret at least.  I have a Secret level, and there's a whole lot of shit that I can't access.

I do agree with the first question though.  When you start dealing with applicants that were born in another country the security process gets alot more strict.
