Feinstein & Rockefeller are both slimy fucks.

I'm glad Obama picked Panetta.

Who cares what the two biggest Bush enablers in the Senate have to say about Obama's intelligence picks?

[liberalmuse]

1. Yeah. Why in the fuck does Obama need to answer to them?

I still subscribe to Jello Biafra's take on Feinstein. Fuck her. Queue in through-00:18:

2. Yeah, two pieces of shit without a doubt.

Feinstein is a DINO warmonger that owes her entire career to a psycho killer who ate Twinkies. And the Rockefellers are the only family who have harmed this country as much as the Bush Crime Family. Neither one of them represents the American people.

3. Feinstefeller really stepped in it. All the shit they flung at Obama is now stuck to them.

The only thing they've succeeded in doing is to shine a light on their miserable failures on the intelligence committee.

:rofl:

6. This is what Al Giordano(The Field) has to say about

it.

<snips>

"Broom The CIA"..

"Clearly, Feinstein and company don't have legitimate objections to Panetta, which makes the appointment of a liberal former US Representative - Time magazine notes that, in Congress, Panetta "repeatedly voted against President Ronald Reagan's military initiatives" - all the more attractive. They are merely scrambling to cover their own asses and cover up their own involvement in actions that, if ever exposed, would become the war crimes of two centuries.

The Panetta appointment also explains a lot about Obama's establishmentarian choices for Secretaries of Defense and State. He picked his battles, and it may be that Panetta is being sent in with a broom to sweep out the dirtiest, smelliest, most illegal enterprise in the United States government (one that has had a corrupting influence on Defense and State, too).

And if Feinstein et al really do try to head it off at the pass and deny Panetta's nomination, all the new president has to do is gather up some of the documents about illegal activities at the CIA - Drugs, anyone? Attempted coups? Illegal domestic surveillance? - in recent years that will be newly available to him on January 20, leak those documents to the press, cause a storm of controversy (and some Pulitzer Prizes to boot), have the new Senate Foreign Relations Committee chair, Senator Kerry, call for public hearings (reminiscent of his Iran-Contra and BCCI investigations), and, voila, place Feinstein and friends - and those who are behind them in this - in checkmate."
