“When you’re confirmed, as I’m sure you will be,” Sen. Kit Bond (R-Mo.) says he looks forward to working with CIA Director-designate Leon Panetta.
Bond moves on immediately to assuring Panetta that the Senate intelligence committee seeks to act in “a spirit of bipartisanship.” So what was all thisabout, then?
