2016-08-15 | |
[POLITICO] Former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta ...current SecDef, previously Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. Panetta served as President Bill Clinton's White House Chief of Staff from 1994 to 1997 and was a member of the United States House of Representatives from 1977 to 1993.... on Sunday defended Hillary Clinton ... sometimes described as For a good time at 3 a.m. call Hillaryand at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another Condoleezza Rice... ’s State Department from accusations it had an improper ties to the Clinton Foundation. "That's something that, obviously, will continue the be looked at," Panetta said, before waving it off as typical networking. "Staff people trying to make connections in Washington is a pretty prevalent behavior by most people in Washington."
"The question is, whether anything was done in return for that kind of donation," Panetta said. "And, as far as I know, nobody's been able to pin down that that actually happened." Panetta, who was CIA director before he moved to the Pentagon, wrote off the criticism as "politics," but said that Clinton should "acknowledge the mistakes that have been made and to then move on." Of course Panetta defends her. He along with former CIA Deputy Director Mike Morrel are executive members of former Clinton advisor Phil Reines' 'Beacon Global Strategies Group.' This is the Clinton safe house for everyone involved in Benghazi. | |

#5 But again we still have those who wish to opine that somehow pulling the lever for Trump is something they can't morally justify, even as the evil that *is* the Clintons will be the beneficiary of such stupidity. |

#3 Panetta, who was CIA director before he moved to the Pentagon... Leon "The Plumber" Panetta is cleaning up messes again. The CIA under Bush was a constant source of embarrassing leaks to the media. Panetta shows up as the representative of the "Soros Mob" (Obama) Family and the "Clinton" Mafia. Then he moves over to the Defense Department to pass on the same message: "Don't rock the boat or you'll never work again in the Beltway!" |

#2 Now ya gotta prove it. Bobby, you not only have to prove wrongdoing but now there is a new standard, you have to prove "intent to do wrongdoing." I suppose if the elites say I didn't really mean to do it, they are off the hook. |
