4. I'm not buying it either. Sorry, but this is just TOO much.

6. Am I being foolish for thinking Obama has an agenda in choosing this man?
As in, once he's in office he can then put these people under scrutiny? Perhaps getting more information out of him while in office than while under oath in a court of law?

Naw. That can't be right. He's running an administration, not a criminal investigation.

9. John Brennan for CIA Director?
I looked online to see if there was anything good about this man. He seems to be the typical two dimensional paranoic, something from the Neo-Con past.

An Interview with John Brennan on Frontline: The Enemy Within:

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/enemywithin/interviews/brennan.html

I far prefer, as well as Mr. Uygar, Richard Clarke as CIA Director.

We need to keep the Neo-cons far away. Their philosophies are part of what got us in all of this shit.

11. Not good if the reports are true.
I agree 100% with Cenk. Richard Clarke would be the best choice imo. He started under Reagan, and worked for every President since. Bill Clinton said Richard Clarke knows more about terrorism, and how to fight it, than anyone alive including himself.

13. I'm starting to think these elections are all a scam
doesn't matter who you put in there in terms of foreign policy, both are exactly the same.
