Obama is making the US less safe. His "peace through vulnerability" philosophy begs bad guys to act up - and they do. Obama winks at bad guys while throwing allies down the well. Obama sprays tons of money at junk - but when we have a nutter in North Korea Obama is cutting missile defense by 1.4 billion. That's just kRaZY time stuff. Obama obvioulsy doesn't even like America and in his Cairo speech he didn't mention terrorism once but he got US "torture" into speech despite nobody having been charged or convicted of anything. Truth is, an enemy would have to be dumb to attack with Obama in charge because he can do more damage to America than Al Qaeda ever could. At some point though it's a lock that US will get hit. Cheney knows this and I don't think he wants that to happen at all. Plus Obama likes to surround himself with token GOP'ers and conservatives so he can deflect full blame for his radical and unsane policies. Obama has been a disaster on security.

Vulnerability? Our military expenditures continue to grow. Gitmo is still open. We're still in Iraq and Afghanistan. The only thing missing is a wannabe cowboy redneck in the Whitehouse.

The military spending issue is one place I give Obama a very low F.

So isn't Obama following the same redneck cowboy policies of Bush then? Maybe Obama is not a wannabe and is just a true redneck cowboy then?

Obama is far more diplomatic than Bush. That's the only difference, so far.

Obama doesn't exude the aura of being an authoritarian dolt. Pretty big difference. He also likes mustard. That says it all.

I think to say Dick Cheney wants America attacked to prove his point is insane.

I think Dick Cheney is a moron, but I can believe he believes the crap he is spouting about America being more unsafe. Thus, he probably expects there's a higher chance of attack. To make the leap of logic and say he wants America attacked to prove his point blah blah blah is just crap.

It is insane that cheney would want an attack to occur to prove a point. Nevertheless, many believe this. I do. I also think some posters here would relish this event for the same reason.

The only thing I'm unsure of is his ultimate agenda. It's frightening to think of how far he wants to take the u.s. into the pits of hell.

I think Mr. Panetta is clearly right, and has proven himself an investigator with a firm grasp of the obvious by deducing this.

I dont think it would help Republicans because it is too close to the end of Bush's presidency. Plus the spin machine would make sure everybody knows it was Bush's fault. Fuck we have the spin machine now parsing the future budgets trying to pin as much future Obama deficit spending on Bush as possible.

Imagine that, we attribute the spending that bush signed into law to bush. Talk about unfair

You're also forgetting that Dick Cheney is a psychopath.

It is called spin. Obama crafts the budget. Everything Obama wants in the budget gets put in the budget regardless of where and when the program was originally enacted. We have programs dating back decades. How much of the 2010 budget are FDR, Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, LBJ, Nixon, Carter, Reagan, Bush I, Clinton responsible for?

What an execise in futility to spin Obama's expected record deficits. But I know people will continue to try.

Gotcha, all of those previous programs are Obama's fault. Social Security? Obama's fault. Medicare? Obama's fault. The FDA? obama's fault, Department of Education? Obama's fault, etc. etc. etc.

What is he doing to fix these issues?

I doubt about how much Chexey loves America after all the mess he made to the country. He should apologized to the mothers and wives of the soldiers for sending them to Irak for nothing other than his ego. I wish Pannetta shut up and let this old far go away , he wants the spot light.

He wanted and allowed 9/11 to happen, I think Panetta is on the right track here...

Appears Panetta is backtracking.

Wouldn't you? He got the mafia-esque kiss of death from cheney "I hope my old friend Leon was misquoted."

But really, panetta couched his accusation with "it's almost ..." just like you did with "Appears ...".

Guys, don't be retarded enough to lump in Republicans with Cheney. I don't think anyone really likes him. Also, OP is misleading, nobody would actually go on air to tell the public that a former vice president wants America to be attacked, because it's pretty ridiculous.
