#4 Having continued to fail miserably in it's counter-proliferation and clandestine missions in the GWOT, the CIA chose to partner with JSOC and hijack the UAV mission of the USAF. After the shooting stops in Afghanistan and Libya, they will cashier their para-mil knuckle draggers and revert to the comfort of their tweed, ivey league Cubana smokers. I detest the bastids. Mike's comments are spot on. |

#3 Panetta has shocked me with how well he has tried to protect the CIA from his unschooled boss. I though for sure that he was sent to take a wrecking ball to the place. I don't see a natural fit at DoD but if true, lets hope that Leon continues to surprise. |

#2 Yeah, I'd say that's exactly right. I'm sure Panetta as career politician will have an intuitive feel for what the frontline combat troops need. Air supremacy is just soo expensive. |

#1 ...Remember: Petraeus is going to CIA because he is a honest and decent soldier and will be too busy trying to fix and improve things to run for President. Panetta is going to DOD to make sure than when it is cut to ribbons as part of the budget negotiations, nobody tries to sabotage it from within. Mike |
