There were 15 different Federal Intelligence agency just in the DC White Pages! You think all the employees of 15 different Federal Intelligence agencies (that they admit to, or all the private subcontractors like BLACKWATER) take no secret actions?

All those reflexively flinging "conspiracy theory" labels are just sheep in deep, deep denial.

You are using false dichotomy here. Intelligence agencies, of course, perform clandestine activities. That does not mean these activities are in the form your favorite conspiracy theory describes. E.g., they probably watch persons of interest, but no, they probably are not in the least interested in your facebook updates, unless you happened to maintain active email correspondence with Usama Bin-Laden circles.

Ah, of course... so that means the fact that there's no evidence to support you theory is itself evidence to support your theory. Ingenious!
