“This is not a good development. I suspect that other intelligence organizations are busy rolling up sensitive operatins and, basically, planning for the inevitable.” I am speechless at Obama’s ineptitude. Neverdem, do you feel safer? 1cm68, you must be having a nice belly laugh at us Yankees acting like idiots. If this was not so serious, and if I didn't live in Chicago Proper, I would be laughing with you. : (

Rumor is that Obambi could not get any intel professional interested in the job, b/c who would want to be in that position during an Obambi admin. and have to deal with all of the Democrat b.s. and lack of support, etc.??? I assume General Hayden is sad to see his desk go to a political hack, but at the same time relieved that he isn't being asked to hang around to witness the fallout.

When is the chosen one going to name Monica Lewinsky to a cabinet post? He seems to have appointed just about every other Clintonista to some sort of job. Hillary must have the goods on him BIG TIME. Those FBI files she has must have come in handy.

The CIA does nothing to fight CAIR and other Saudi funded/US based Shariah promoting organizations. Um, that's because internal intelligence is the FBI's job. The CIA handles intelligence beyond our borders.

Unreal - a liberal political hack like Panetta replacing General Hayden - why not just put Blagojevich in there as DCI? I hear that he may need a new job soon......

Excellent, another piece of my diabollically asinine plan falls into place!
To: RabidBartender
Remember all the folks who screamed from the mountaintops how the FEMA Director wasn’t qualified for the job? Imagien someone else with no practical experience runnning the CIA! What a disaster. Good thing Obama understands this.... ;-)

That's what I thought.
Up until now, I didn't really have too much of a problem by and large with most of the appointments other than Eric Holder.
Bu this... I'm truly shocked. It's even more appalling to me than the Holder pick.

Come on Obama you can’t leave Lanny out if every other retread Clintanoid gets a primo job.

Lanny has a job. The same as always.
The job of Lanny Davis is to go on Fox TV an lie his ass off and then argue bitterly and vociferously with his host.

Panetta was the “Baghdad Bob” of the Clinton blue dress scandal... always denying anything had happened... Instead of Chief of Staff, he was Chief of Lying for the Staff...
A few of us remember.... the guy has Zero Credibility....
He even favors Baghdad Bob!
To: Chgogal
I’m not sure its ineptitude. Bill Ayers will have a VERY strong interest in who runs the CIA. They’ve been at it for over 70 years now and, today, its Christmas in Leningrad!

He served in Vietnam for two years as an attorney. Does that count? Found that tidbit in Buzz Patterson's book, Dereliction of Duty.

Why didn't he just pick TBBOA ... it makes about as much sense as Panetta
and much easier to listen to.
