Michael Scheuer, former CIA Bin Laden Task Force Chief, gives his take on Obama’s pick of Leon Panetta as the CIA director. Scheuer reminds us of all the attacks by Al Qaeda prior to and including the WTC attacks on 9/11. It’s easy to say, Scheuer doesn’t think this is a wise pick, like most of the rest of us. In fact, in my mind… it’s a downright scary pick!
On record is supporter and former fellow member of the Iraq Study Group member, Lee Hamilton (D), who says Panetta is a good pick, stating: “He will gear the output of the intelligence agency to the priorities of the president.”
Um, yeah… that’s exactly what a lot of us are afraid of.
