Dem Polster Pat Caddell: Obama's Natl Security Advisor Tom Donilon IS The WH Secrets Leaker !
Sean Hannity Show

Posted on 06/11/2012 6:36:58 PM PDT by MindBender26

On Hannity, Dem pollster Pat Caddell swears he absolutely knows from his sources who the WH secrets leaker is, and it is National Security Advisor Tom Donilon.

Caddell, who is very well wired into all things Democratic in DC, said he thought there as no way Donilon would have done this without Obama's permission and perhaps instigation.

He went on to describe Donilon as a "pure political hack" who has absolutely no experience or qualifications to be the NSA.

Caddell" "Because of this hack, American friends are either dead, in prison or on the run. The Israelis are absolutely furious over the Azerbaijani leak"

To quote Caddell, "This is a job that people like Henry Kissinger, Brent Scowcroft, Condi Rice and Colin Powell have had, and then Obama brings in this vote-counting political hack, registered lobbyist-lawyer for Fannie Mae!"

"General Jones was quoted as saying this hack has no credibility with the military, and now he is burning them." When he burned the CIA in a previous leak, the then-CIA director told him; 'I've got a new PR plan for you, Tom. Shut the F**k Up!"

Caddell would never have said this without permission from the Clintons, and probably the DNC.

House of cards.

This is really big. It completely usurps AG Holder's stalling tactic of appointing to Asst AGs to investigate and get results.... long after election day.

Was Donilon confirmed or is he another ‘recess’ appointment? WHO IS RESPONSIBLE for this sorry excuse for an American being in a position of power??

Quickie from Wiki:

He worked as Executive Vice President for Law and Policy at Fannie Mae, the federally-chartered mortgage finance company, as a registered lobbyist from 1999 through 2005.[3] This line on his resume raised eyebrows when his appointment to the Obama transition team was announced, given that the company had been seized by federal regulators.[7]

Before his appointment to the Obama Administration, Donilon was a partner in the Washington office of the law firm O’Melveny & Myers, where he advised companies and their boards on a range of “sensitive governance, policy, legal and regulatory matters.” [8]

Government and political work

Donilon worked as assistant secretary of state for public affairs and has served as the Clinton administration’s Secretary of State chief of staff. Although he has no military experience and worked as a lobbyist, Donilon was “intimately involved in many major foreign policy issues, including negotiating the Bosnian peace agreement and the expansion of NATO”. [3] Donilon figures prominently during formulation of strategy for Afghanistan and associated discussions in Bob Woodward’s 2010 book, “Obama’s Wars.”[9]

Donilon was ‘criticized’ by General Jones who once disparaged Donilon, for his lack of overseas experience, telling him that as a result: “You have no credibility with the military,” according to Bob Woodward’s “Obama’s Wars.” Jones said that Donilon was not good in his dealings with his staff at the National Security Council, displaying “too little feel for the people who work day and night....”. Donilon did visit Afghanistan March 2010 during President Obama’s six-hour late-night visit to the country.[10]

Personal life

Donilon is the brother of Mike Donilon, a lawyer and political consultant who is Counselor to Vice-President Joe Biden. He is married to Catherine M. Russell, who is Chief of Staff to Jill Biden, and they have two children

So I assume the MSM will be camped outside of Donilon’s house hounding him with questions every time he pops his head out in public......not.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A57900-2005Apr15.html

April 16, 2005

…From 2000 to 2003, Donilon received more than $7 million in compensation in the form of cash payments and restricted stock awards. Last year, he was paid his salary — $644,000 — but no bonus.

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2010/04/21/all_the_presidents_goldman_sachs_men_105251.html

…Obama’s close hometown crony, campaign finance chief and senior adviser Penny Pritzker was head of Superior Bank of Chicago, a subprime specialist that went bust in 2001, leaving more than 1,400 people stripped of their savings after bank officials falsified profit reports. Pritzker’s lawyer at O’Melveny and Myers, Tom Donilon, is now Obama’s deputy national security adviser. He earned just shy of $4 million representing her and other high-profile meltdown clients including Goldman Sachs.

http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/28562

…Thomas Donilon is really Biden’s man. He’s worked for Biden in the past. His brother works for him. His wife is Biden’s Chief of Staff. If Donilon was any deeper in with Biden, he’d be married to him. Which means it’s good odds that Biden helped push out Jones. Biden’s supposed reason for being in his present job is his foreign policy expertise. Putting in Donilon let him have an oar in the water, now his oar just got a little bigger

"Caddell would never have said this without permission from the Clintons..."

According to his wiki bio, he worked on foreign policy issues in the Clinton administration, but then the Clintons have been known to throw their own people under the bus too. His brother is Counselor to Joe Biden, while his wife, Catherine Russell, is Jill Biden's Chief of Staff.

I agree (other than the DNC part). DWS is still under 0bama control.

House of cards indeed. For Caddell to add ... "he thought there as no way Donilon would have done this without Obama's permission and perhaps instigation" was priceless! The battle lines are forming between the Clintons and 0bama. Popcorn time.

“Was Donilon confirmed or is he another ‘recess’ appointment? WHO IS RESPONSIBLE for this sorry excuse for an American being in a position of power??”


The position of National Security Adviser is appointed by the president, and is not subject to Senate confirmation. Thus, Barack Obama is solely responsible for Donilon being in a position of power.

In other words, elections matter. We need to get Obama out of the White House pronto.

I’m starting to think there’s a lot of Dems who don’t want Obama to have a second term.
