I think having someone with integrity who will follow the law, instead of helping the POTUS break it,is a good start.

High regard for the law is an excellent quality for Attorney General or FBI Director.

At the CIA, I'd rather have someone with the talent to not get caught--that being a defining characteristic of successful espionage.

A couple of replies point out his lack of spy experience. The Director of the CIA is going to hard wire taps and run recon with a sniper rifle? I would rather think that he is a person who sets general policy and takes the operatives concerns and reports to the Leader; after the concerns and reports are evaluated by about 50 deputies. This is the first time in about a decade that the director has direct access to the president. The director can read Spy Magazine to get the hands on experience he needs.

Hippiekinkster, Bin laden is NOT publically hanging out in an open camp training, funding and deploying terror cells around the world (which have struck in the heart of several of our allies), while flipping off the USA and giving speeches about how we are a paper tiger, like The Democrats left him, in 2000.

He has been hiding like a coward for years now. Afraid to show his face in public. Perhaps he even died a cowards death in hiding. His top luetinants rounded up or killed, cells busted all over the world, operational capacity almost zero, and many of his top people sitting in cells in Guantamano (where bizzarley the left is demanding they be set loose).

You're funny. Chokes-on-pretzels put a 25 MM bounty on UBL and so far, not a single nibble. Not even after torturing his top luetinants (sic) down Gitmo way.

You, like most of the righties, confuse lack of activity with success by the Busheviks. I know differently. I know for a fact that the reason the US of A hasn't been attacked is because of my magic quartz crystal I have out in my pond. Said crystal has also warded off a collision by an asteroid with the Earth.

I won't even bother trying to explain to you that "the Base" refers to a database of Mujahadeen sympathetic to the aims of the islamic Brotherhood et cetera. I find it difficult to take seriously arguments from someone who can't spell "arctic".

Yeah right,we killed his # 2 man like how many times?Note,there`s only one #2.One #3 and so on.

And one #1,who got away with 9/11.

He got away with it!

He`s taken more wives and had more offspring.Eats comfortably and relaxes with his tea

And he is still planning and financing attacks.His demise is only a fantasy indulged in ,to cope with the fact that he escaped justice.

bush also didn`t get rid of the Taliban ,as he claimed he did.They`re back and back in force.He blew it all invading and occupying Iraq.The worst foreign policy disaster since Viet Nam.

That defines failure.

Panetta(working for Obama) will be busy turning all that around.

I don't think it's possible for Panetta do do any worse thatn the Busheviks have done. Like you say, they define total failure.

Not only did UBL get away with it (if, indeed, it was him alone who set it up; I doubt that), but he has rubbed Bush's nose in his shit for almost 8 years.

And the Taliban has been reinvigorated. More heroin than ever. (fine with me, actually. That's another thread, and one which would get shut down here).

Bush is responsible for more American deaths than Islamic whackjobs! Over 4200 American soldiers dead trying to come out from under his daddy's shadow. And that sonofabitch KNEW there were no WMDs in Iraq.

If I said what I think, not only would I be banned, but I'd be arrested and locked up without due process.

Sure hippie, I suppose some weak minded folks will not notice you dodged every single point I made. So Al Queda is a database.... I guess we should assume that you wish he was openly operating, with the protection of a friendly Government, like Clinton left him.

More likely than being arrested, you would be laughed at.

And owner59, thinks there is only one number 2. Did he have it tatooed on his forehead? Guess we will see what Oabama thinks very soon.
