HOWEVER, if they keep screwing us, we MIGHT have to call on YOUR guys! I came up with 4 good phrases that might fit, but they might bring the CIA into my world to ask me what I meant! ( Central Intelligence Agency) I think that the second word in that name is a metaphore, since I have seen so little 'intelligence' in anything involving guv-ment..

If they wanted to investigate home-grown terrorism they would be kicking the BANKERS and INSURANCE companies!
Ah, I see! Thanks Jerry for the info.

We have them here too, except we call them PPS for Personal Pension Schemes.

I think you're right about the Intelligence bit. They have a weird grasp of English anyhow that somehow decries the intelligence word.

Here in Ireland [we're very neutral now since we stopped blowing each other up] there is left wing backlash about NOT searching CIA flights on route to Guantanamo via Shannon with orange clad militia prisoners on board. They call these flights Extraordinary Rendition.

My idea of extraordinary rendition is when somebody gets up at a wedding and sings "My Way" in Hebrew or Urdu or something
