"Dead Drop"

From this week's "Dead Drop"♠ we have this little indicator of the old proverb, where you stand depends upon where you sit.

WHIPLASH:  According to NBCNEWS.COM, polling indicates that for the first time since 2002, Democrats now have a more positive view of the CIA than do Republicans.  Seems as if it is a matter of hearing what you like – and liking what you hear.  How could the CIA win favor with Team Trump?  We recommend releasing a report that says they have learned the DNC hack was really done by some 400 pound guy sitting on his bed in New Jersey.
