I am surprised by Panetta...he use to be a snake. I don’t trust any of them quite frankly. But I would certainly trust Panetta and Clinton more than Obama and Jarrett in the worse case scenario. I don’t trust the CIA anymore since they spent years undermining President Bush.
I DO trust our military over all of them...always!
When he was strictly a political advisor, Panetta was a snake -- in the best tradition of establishment Democrats.
But, when he's been given a responsible job to do, Panetta seems to have acted as pretty much a straight-up guy.
One thing is for sure: Pannetta is a Clintonista of long standing...and that he and Hillary would be allies comes as no surprise.
