Obama and his manboobs clueless again, picks another uber-cool Clinton retread with NO intelligence experience to head the CIA.

Its becoming blatantly apparant that Hussein Obama has no clue what he’s doing in picking his cabinet. All you need on your resume to get a position is to have been with the previous Clinton administration! El Pollo Richardson, who has been under investigation for months, and resigned yesterday is a prime example of Obama’s cluelessness.  Today Obama picked Leon Panetta who’s never worked in intelligence to head CIA,

.Via NYT. Damned scary:

President-elect Barack Obama has selected Leon E. Panetta, the former congressman and White House chief of staff, to take over the Central Intelligence Agency, an organization that Mr. Obama criticized during the campaign for using interrogation methods he decried as torture, Democratic officials said Monday.

Mr. Panetta has a reputation in Washington as a competent manager with strong background in budget issues, but has little hands-on intelligence experience. If confirmed by the Senate, he will take control of the agency most directly responsible for hunting senior Al Qaeda leaders around the globe, but one that has been buffeted since the Sept. 11 attacks by leadership changes and morale problems.

Given his background, Mr. Panetta is a somewhat unusual choice to lead the C.I.A., an agency that has been unwelcoming to previous directors perceived as outsiders, such as Stansfield M. Turner and John M. Deutch. But his selection points up the difficulty Mr. Obama had in finding a C.I.A. director with no connection to controversial counterterrorism programs of the Bush era.

Michelle Malkin has a great idea. How about Janet Reno to replace El Pollo Richardson for Commerce Secretary!
