Maybe the CIA has Agents Moonlighting in the NFL

As Janinie Wedel reports, it appears that CIA agents are moonlighting for Goldman Sachs, and the like, where they are:


sitting and watching and scrutinizing.... business news on CNBC.
watching for tells from CEO's to see what kind of characters they really are.

Now comes word that an NFL player when shown by CNBC a picture of Fed chairman Ben Bernanke sure nailed the guy. Lew Rockwell explains:

Every year, CNBC’s Squawk Box quizzes some of the Super Bowl players on current financial issues. I only caught a little of it this morning, when they were asked to identify a photo of Ben Bernanke. One untutored guy was full of wisdom: “I don’t know who he is, but he looks like a crook. He looks like he would take every single thing you have.”

    For the uninitiated, that assessment is pretty good.
