So, I was reading the wikipedia entry on dear leader a while back and I noticed this part.
Following high school, Obama moved to Los Angeles in 1979 to attend Occidental College.[25] After two years he transferred in 1981 to Columbia University in New York City, where he majored in political science with a specialization in international relations[26] and graduated with a B.A. in 1983. He worked for a year at the Business International Corporation
Business International Corporation? What's that? Lets click on the hyperlink and see, shall we?
Business International Corporation (BI) was a publishing and advisory firm dedicated to assisting American companies in operating abroad. In 1986, Business International was acquired by The Economist Group in London, and eventually merged with The Economist Intelligence Unit. BI has been known to be used as a CIA front company.

So, according to this, and it seems pretty well sourced, the first job Barack Obama held after college was working for a known CIA front company? WTF?
