curious as to why you think that should bother her, given than she voted for Porter Goss for the same position, a man who ADMITTED publicly he was unqualified for the post but accepted it anyway..

We can complain about vairous Senators all we want, but let’s face it – none of them are Lieberman, or even close. As such, it’s up to Obama to massage the vote and kiss some butts on the Hill if he expects to be allowed to “think outside the box” with picks like this.

I think Panetta may be a good idea. I think Feinstein and Rockefeller should quit being crybabies and get on board with the Democratic party as it attempts to fix the country. But I also think that Obama should have “handled” them better.

There really isn’t a good good-guy vs. bad-guy story here to get all that up in arms about. From the mild complaints that Feinstein and Rockefeller have given, it’s not at all clear that Panetta wouldn’t make it through confirmation anyways.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Sen. Dianne Feinstein said Tuesday that President-elect Barack Obama apologized to her for not notifying her ahead of time that Leon Panetta was his pick for CIA director.

His name leaked to the press before Obama informed Feinstein, a California Democrat and incoming Senate Intelligence Committee chairman, who will oversee Panetta’s nomination hearing.

Even if they weren’t consulted, why not just STFU about it. These D.C. dinasaurs just love giving republicans ammunition that democrats are divided. It’s not like Obama nominated a mailman from Iowa, Jeez . .

Spoken by a true Californian. I have many friends that live in the Bay area that completely unhappy with Feinstein. And she has completely changed. She may have the rolodex of contacts of her corporate affiliates and her buddies in the Senate to protect her, but come the 20th, she will be dealing with Obama and not Bush. So, I have a feeling that all of the Senators and Congressional leaders that are still set in their ways will have a wake up call and put on notice that the party is over for having their way. And certainly Feinstein’s decisions that she voted for that went in favor of Bush’s personal agenda will come back to bite her.

You truly are a nutcase, rhf. I must be doing something right to be deserving of your ire. I think the entire TP community has written you off by now. Please, by all means remain stuck in your Hillary time warp. It’s only 2009.

republicans hate facts Says:
I personally think it might be a good idea to shake up the CIA with outside blood like Panetta. But for Obama to do this without the consultation and involvement of the Senators that will need to approve him and who’ve repeated in the past that they wanted an intelligence officer in charge is just bad decision making and bad leadership by Obama and his team.

Just no pleasin you is there rhf? You rail against Obama for being in bed with these people and now you rail against him for not listening to them.

You can’t have it both ways little man.

it got out before that call got made, i guess…

She is a Republican. She has been nearly always a Bush supporter. And she will be up for re-election one day but not soon enough. She is arrogant and dismissive of most Democratic issues. I do not know why she just does not change party’s.

Like Nancy Pelosi also from this area, they should both be tossed out. I am never surprised by anything she says or does. She is rich and corporate through and through. When she leaves the Senate, she will sit on the boards of many corporations. And with her rolodex of contacts she will make even more money then her family has now. This is who she is.
