Obama nominates Brennan as CIA Director.
Great choice.
Old school, and a lifetime in intelligence.
ACLU hates him, so he's gotta be a great pick!

Obama is punking the conks at every turn. He's going to make them confirm Hagel too. All praise to Obama, the compassionate, the merciful..

I like the idea of a purple heart veteran who was an enlisted man, a
real soldier, get offered the gig over some West Point suck azz politician officer.

And if you have kids that might serve in the military you should like that too.

While I think Hagel is an egotistical ass, like all politicians, I have no problem with his nomination. Presidents should be able to install whoever they want in their cabinet unless their are serious issues/problems.

Brennan was one of the chief defenders of post 9-11 "torture" interrogation technique.
