Why did the U.S. Senate confirm Leon Panetta as Defense Secretary with a 100 to 0 vote? You would think some of them would have done a background check on this Communist.

I am wondering the same thing. Why was it 100 to 0. That means Jim DeMint voted for him too.

My guess is that it’s payback for whatever he did to get Bin Laden. There was a rumor that Obama didn’t know about the raid, and that Panetta and Clinton and others orchestrated it. I suppose it could be some sort of payback for not exposing Obama’s ineptitude?
