A New York Post letter writer didn't like the Leon Panetta pick:
I couldn't disagree more with Obama's choice of Panetta - the man lacks the experience needed for this most important job.Oh, it would be "bold," all right. And not in a good way. Posted by Stephen Silver at January 11, 2009 04:20 AMIf Obama wants to make the right move, be bold and mend fences with the GOP for the good of the nation, he should name current Vice President Dick Cheney as head of CIA.
Cheney is, if anything, overqualified and has a track record bar none in keeping America safe from its enemies.
Be bold, Obama. Reverse course and name Cheney.
Not sure how "safe" America was when Cheney was VP on 9/11.
