Clintonistas were pretty good on trade, and okay on national security.

The country's manufacturing base got pissed away under Bush I, Clinton, and Bush II.

"The Road to 9/11" showed very convincingly how the Clintons screwed up many opportunities to nail Bin Ladin. And don't forget - they allowed ICBM targeting technologies to get to the Chinese, all for a nice campaign contribution.

Clintons = Scum.

..look for Hillary to resign at some point and begin campaigning for 2012--running to Obama's right...

Imagine her taking the wood to Bammy over the 3AM call, and world apology tours and such!!!

It's unbelievable that compared to the current president that her witchiness seems like an improvement!!!

My guess is that he'll simply appoint a CIA Czar. Probably William Ayers. No congressional approval required. Ayers would make Czar No. 58 or so.

Beat you to it! Great minds, etc.

Well, obviously, according to the New Obama Constitution of 2009, there will be a "CIA Czar" appointed, who will not need Senate confirmation like any of the other 36 Czars. Soon to follow will be the new FBI Czar. At some point, when Obama appoints a "Congress Czar" to direct things over there, the Democrats over there will see what they helped put in place.

... but they won't be able to do anything about it.

Obama may be what this country needs to finally bring Dems back to the Constitutional Government we once had.

If Panetta were to resign, I couldn't think of a better time for it to happen to Pres. Urkel with Ted Kennedy's death and funeral garnering all the attention.

I never thought I would see the day that I would want Clinton back but I would take he and Hilary in a NY minute. At least they don’t despise their country and Constitution. Odumbo is evil and rotten to the core. I want him OUT, NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's going to become very interesting to see who Obama puts in his place.

It will have to be someone who accepts the fact that the White House will be doing the job the CIA used to do, so it will have to be someone WEAK.

The CIA rank and file will not want to work for someone who allows Obama to turn the agency into a subsidiary of ACORN.

Here's the guy who fills the bill.

He'll join the ranks of Clinton retreads--and all Obama has to do is pick up the puppet-strings currently slack and on the pegs.

Well, he’s creating more enemies by the day. After a few more are out the Democrats will throw him under the bus come election time. THey’ll figure something out; they don’t want this country to fall to pieces and it looks like they are facing the wrath of their constituents.

Obama is resembling Nicolae Carpathia (certainly not in looks though) and going his merry way despite the fact that they thought be would be an obedient puppet.

When this all started Berg said he went to both the FBI and CIA with his information....They told him something to the effect that he only had the tip of the iceberg and that when the time came, they had all the “goods’

My question has been: Does BO people have access to any of this information?...Are they keeping it away from him?

When is the shoe going to fall? What are they waiting for?
