“He is fighting the investigations of the CIA. Who’da thunk a Clintonista had a conscience..?”

Well, maybe Panetta isn’t a communist.

“If he cares enough to quit - he should stay on... the next guy will be worse”

Obama will pick up some moth-eaten communist off a street corner to replace him.

Thats the fascist “kill” look. Hillary is a deer in the headlights.

These guys protect us from the world’s evil... and they would be the first ones to laugh at that - also knowing it’s true. I wasn’t kidding - the people who are so upset they want to leave are the ones who need to stay. Things will get better - this is temporary.

“I wasn’t kidding - the people who are so upset they want to leave are the ones who need to stay.”

I wasn’t kidding either. If those who need to stay leave, they will be replaced by some moth eaten communist.

I agree. An enemy you know is far better than an enemy you don’t. Besides, it will give Obomba an opportunity to appoint another “czar” because the bureau is in such disarray.

Take Pelosi down with him.

CIA director might have some dirt.

IIRC, Colby left the CIA approx. 20 years before his death.

Wanna bet that Hil is going to be forced out soon

Forced out from what, her at-large ambassadorship to various African nations.

He’ll be replaced with a Communist.

If it were me, I’d not only resign, but I’d also switch to the ‘pubbies, and throw all of my resources against Pelosi in 2010, as well. The ‘rats have treated Leon almost as badly as they did Lieberman. What happened to the ‘honor among theives’ we always hear so much about?

Wanna bet that Hil is going to be forced out soon...

This could be a means by Clinton to destroy Obama. Wait until his poll numbers are low and then do a mass resignation over the war on terror taking several Clinton-era people with them.

Obama would never survive and Hillary would be instantly credible as tough on terrorism.

Its funny. I never thought I would long for the days of the Clintons, but even they put this admin to shame.

[pray4liberty]

Whenever a pol “reluctantly steps down” or “retires” or “leaves to spend more time with his family”....

He may be ill, or just sick of it all, period. Recent pics show that he doesn't look very good.

[The Comedian]

OMG, Panetta sprouted an honor nub!
