Panetta: Congress Biggest Threat to National Security
Truth Revolt ^ | February 15, 2015 | Trey Sanchez

Posted on 02/15/2015 1:09:56 PM PST by QT3.14

Former Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta on Sunday slammed Congress on CNN's State of the Union naming them the biggest threat to national security.

Host Jim Acosta asked Panetta if President Obama is going to be able to work with Republicans to get his war measure against ISIS passed. But before an answer was provided, Acosta read something Panetta had previously written criticizing the president:

“He does, however, lack fire. Too often, in my view, the president relies on the logic of a law professor rather than the passion of a leader.

But now, Panetta has changed his tune and expressed his confidence in the commander in chief saying, "I don't think there's any question that the president could get this done."

Old Leon has been all over the place and making the rounds lately, somebody should ask him, “Hey Leon, where's Hillary, how's Bill doing?”.

Panetta and his fellow traitorous demonicrats are the greatest internal threat to the United States.

Hey Panetta, get your head out of your a— and look to the oval office at your former incompetent, worst POTUS in American history, for the biggest threat to national security.

Will the Republicans in the HOR and US Senate FINALLY get too disgusted to compromise with Obama or give him any more authority? Obama had all the authority he needed to disintegrate ISIS when they were marching in a column across the desert. Why is no one bringing that up?

He doesn't need more authority, he needs more smarts and a better moral and ethical compass.

Party comes before country. Screw the Democratic Party. Their biggest icons such as FDR and JFK wouldn’t even recognize them today because they’re far more leftist than ever. Is their not one Democrat of stature who will tell it like it is, and that the current Democratic Party is the single biggest danger to the country today?

A representative republic is such a bother.

Dictatorship is so much more convenient.

The main problem is we have too many GOP communists in the Senate. Anything the House does will not pass the Senate. The GOP is finished and we do not have time to work on those obstructionist Republicans.
