Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the California Democrat who’s about to take the reins as chairwoman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, doesn’t appear to be too happy with Leon Panetta’s prospective appointment to head the CIA. Here’s what her office just sent me:

“I was not informed about the selection of Leon Panetta to be the CIA Director. I know nothing about this, other than what I’ve read,” said Senator Feinstein, who will chair the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence in the 1

A MAJOR Democrat and one in a position of power is against a non intel field ex-Clintonite being named to head CIA? This is the start of the Obama Cabinet vetting process that will reconvene in the Senate soon when they decide to approve or not the Cabinet of Mr. Obama's.

dang, haven't even taken office and there's already been a gaffe in intelligence.

I link the disconnect to Obama's intel brief after his win. The change of intent in both character and substance now comes to light.

Congress may not fully know the nature of the crisis as it may be that some in congress may have helped a few of the bankers. Are they sniffing for treason?

Time will tell. Bush and Obama may have a common enemy. And as President Bush fully understands the "enemy of my enemy is my friend".

I can't help but wonder... So what? This isn't going to be all rainbows and moon pies. I'm sure there are those in the cabinet who aren't pleased with Hillary as Sec'y of State. It's just kinda too bad. Whining isn't really something I think Obama is going to take kindly to.

jam, if you think the Dems are one big happy family since Obama got elected, you haven't been listening. Obama isn't catering to the Dems. AND I LOVE IT!
