Panetta Confirmation Set For Thursday
Looks like all the paperwork‘s been filed. Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) has set CIA Director-designee Leon Panetta’s confirmation hearing for Thursday at the unusual hour of 2:30 p.m., when everyone’s blood sugar will be crashing from lunch. Time to get clarity on whether there really are loopholes in President Obama’s recent executive orders for rendition, or black sites or other aspects of the Dark Side.
