A "profanity-laced screaming match" at the White House involving CIA Director Leon Panetta, and the expected release today of another damning internal investigation, has administration officials worrying about the direction of its newly-appoint intelligence team, current and former senior intelligence officials tell ABC News.com.
Amid reports that Panetta had threatened to quit just seven months after taking over at the spy agency, other insiders tell ABCNews.com that senior White House staff members are already discussing a possible shake-up of top national security officials.
"You can expect a larger than normal turnover in the next year," a senior adviser to Obama on intelligence matters told ABCNews.com.
Since 9/11, the CIA has had five directors or acting directors.
A White House spokesperson, Denis McDonough, said reports that Panetta had threatened to quit and that the White House was seeking a replacement were "inaccurate."
According to intelligence officials, Panetta erupted in a tirade last month during a meeting with a senior White House staff member. Panetta was reportedly upset over plans by Attorney General Eric Holder to open a criminal investigation of allegations that CIA officers broke the law in carrying out certain interrogation techniques that President Obama has termed "torture."

It’s time for the CIA to start looking into birth certificates, college records, and other things...
Heh.
The list, ping
a bridge too far?
Well that makes me feel safer. /s
“This is just a diversion from FedLove HealthCare, Inc. “
Yep...
or smokescreen for Failed Zer0Bambi's Health Care scheme.
If you can prove that and make it stick, you’re a daisy.
Yhea...
The real fascists will now be appointed by Obama.
And many people will die a a result, some of them our own soldiers.
That’s a dude.
I was actually betting that at least one top appointee would resign before the end of the year...but 7 months in? Watch Hitlery make her exit late next year...followed by??
My guess: Holder.
I’ll echo/paraphrase another FReeper this morning:
How many more high crimes and misdemeanors is this Obama WH going to get away with?
IT’S TIME TO IMPEACH!!
You are right but with a Dem controlled Congress this will not happen.
It is stunning to watch this take over and know there isn’t anything we can do
The republicans can certainly start demanding investigations and shouting from the rooftops however.
wow...in my wildest dreams I never thought this administration would implode so quickly and so violently. It’s a site to behold...
It could be. I guess we'll see, stranger things have happened.
