Could this actually be the greatest and potentially the deadliest of Obama’s screw ups so far?
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | January 1st at 10:12 PM |
I missed the implications of this up front and I bet you all did too, but I am hearing from members of the American intelligence community and some on the outside closely connected to those on the inside who are raising a huge red flag right now. It appears Barack Obama inexperience and amateurishness has just started bonfires on the bridges connecting him to the | Read More »
Is Panetta Headed Out the Door?
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 27th at 09:21 AM |
Yesterday I told you guys I had a credible though unconfirmed rumor that Leon Panetta had sent his resignation letter up the Barack Obama’s vacation retreat. Spencer Ackerman, not known to believe the government when ChimpyMcBushitlerHalliburton ran it, took the CIA’s denial at face value. Likewise, George Little from the CIA emailed me this: I read your post at redstate.com. I don’t know where these | Read More »
Rumors Surface That Leon Panetta is Resigning
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | August 26th at 02:57 PM |
I’m hearing a very credible rumor that Leon Panetta has dispatched a resignation letter to Barack Obama on vacation. Panetta is said to be extremely angry about the possible prosecution of CIA officers doing their job and has decided to resign in protest. The rumor is unconfirmed, but given the sourcing I think it is safe to treat it credibly. UPDATED: Spencer Ackerman, cast in | Read More »

Jed Babbin has the top story at Human Events today on the Lockerbie Bomber. If only there were a conspiracy to blame, but there isn’t. It would be comforting, in a perverse way, to discover a home video showing Scottish Justice Minister Kenny MacAskill, CIA Director Leon Panetta and the bosses of Yale University Press smoking cigars and playing cards with Muammar Gaddafi. But | Read More »
On the “Cheney Didn’t Tell Us” Lie
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | July 12th at 10:45 PM |
I’m on record that this story is a distraction designed to take the heat off Nancy Pelosi lying about and smearing the CIA. It is also a distraction for conservatives who tend to focus on national security issues instead of things like socialized healthcare. Nonetheless, while Democrats are screaming that evil Dick Cheney did not tell them about a CIA program, the former Director of | Read More »
Barack Obama’s Dangerous Game
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | January 13th at 11:50 AM |
Bumped up top to go with the AOL Hot Seat Question The media, let’s face it, want Barack Obama to succeed. They’ll want him to succeed until the moment Americans start getting slaughtered again in American streets by terrorists. And then they’ll want him to succeed even more. But we must be prepared to set the record straight. I am deeply concerned that Leon Panetta, | Read More »
Barack Obama’s Dangerous Game Will See Many of Us Killed
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | January 8th at 09:15 AM |
“The Jack Bauers if you will … see a President right now who made tough decisions in secret and stood by those decisions when they became public….These same men see the incoming President unwilling to stand behind one of their own.” The media, let’s face it, want Barack Obama to succeed. They’ll want him to succeed until the moment Americans start getting slaughtered again in | Read More »
