Committee to Intervene Anywhere

Political satirist and folk singer Dave Lippman created the character of George Shrub, a satire of George Bush, who worked for the Committee to Intervene Anywhere (abbreviated CIA). Lippman has been touring and giving performances as Shrub since the 1980s when he launched his "Reagan for Shah" campaign satirizing Reagan's presidential campaign. As Shrub, he satirizes the CIA and U.S. intervention in Latin America and around the world, including both Gulf Wars.
