Especially since it's not the CIA that does that.

It's not like you're the first person to incorrectly identify the CIA in that way...or many other ways, for that matter.

Oh...and suck it.

But I could be mistaken.  It's been a short amount of time and my short term memory is pretty darn bad.

Am I being pedantic or are you?

What you quoted implies the CIA listens to phone calls in some manner. They don't. That is NSA's job (signals intelligence). CIA's job is human intelligence.

I'm going to go ahead and say you're being pedantic...mostly because I've been drinking a bit.
