How would you feel as a CIA agent under Leon Panetta?

If you are currently a CIA agent, how would you feel with Leon Panetta as your boss? Especially if you are in the field, or in deep cover, or just plain doing your job? I wouldn't feel very good. What if your retirement was just around the corner? Seems like a good time to leave or if you got a better proposition from a private sector corporation. I don't think Leon Panetta is qualified for the job, and anyone who has been in the military knows you want someone to back you up further up the chain of command when the situations gets tough.How would you feel as a CIA agent under Leon Panetta?
Leon Panetta may be quite capable in many areas, but to hire the chief of your organization from the outside is just wrong, and especially in an organization where confidence in your highest ranking leader is so important. I imagine there is a strong culture and ideology inside the CIA which might be hard to understand unless you went through it yourself. I'm not sure the CIA is in such disarray that it would call for someone totally ';untainted'; (as it were) to come in and clean house which is usually what someone from the outside is called in to do. Otherwise, those on the inside who have shown a mastery of the business via the successful decisions they've made, are usually the ones more qualified to assume the lead position.



But Obama is either up to something in trying to change the influence base at the CIA, or he's plain dumb when it comes to making appointments. Even his own people are criticizing this decision but as I predicted, it is just another indication that Obama's just a good speech maker but not the brilliant manager that some assume he is. What did he do in Illinois, after all? Great credentials to come from, right, it being a hotbed of so much political scandal.How would you feel as a CIA agent under Leon Panetta?
UNSAFE!!



VERY UNSAFE.



IT IS LIKE APPOINTING THE HEAD OF THE LOCAL BOY SCOUTS TO BE POLICE CHIEF OF NEW YORK CITY.



GOOD GOD, WHAT HAS OBAMA GOT IN THAT THICK SKULL OF HIS.



GIVE THIS A LITTLE THOUGHT WOULD YOU?
If Obama can't make better decisions then to appoint panetta to that position then we are in big trouble
