IF it is true that Pres. Obama said this about Petraeus, then that shows that perhaps Obama regrets getting Petraeus to head the CIA and is looking for a way to push him out. I hear that Petreaus is generally well-liked and seen as a competent leader at the CIA, as opposed to the president. I wouldn't be surprised if the president has embarrassed himself through his ignorance in front of the national security chiefs and feels the need to get someone like Panetta back in charge.

Maybe it’s a trial balloon for Obama to pick him as his own VP.
