Obama makes telling foreign policy picks
President Barack Obama said Monday he will nominate former Sen. Chuck Hagel, a Republican, to become Defense Secretary and tapped his chief counterterrorism adviser, John Brennan, to become director of the Central Intelligence Agency. CNN's Barbara Starr reports on the message Obama is sending about foreign policy in his second term with these two top national security post nominations.

I hope that Chuck Hagel does get the job at the Pentagon since he is one of the very few decent people left in Washington these days. I only wish that the C.I.A. would just quit butchering people over in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen with those killer drones. Has Obama no decency in him at all? As a nation, those ungodly drones strikes are truly a national disgrace and makes one almost ashamed to even be an American.
Thank God for drones. Human infiltration is exhausting and dangerous.
Now that is the most blasphemous statement I've seen here yet! Please zumaque1, leave God out of this. Can you imagine Jesus condoning such human butchery? I cannot!
Gawd didn't make your beautiful random civilian-slaughtering-collateral-damage drones. Man did. Give praise instead, to the d!ckless eunich, safely esconced in a bunker thousands of miles away.
No thank god for drones, because that means we don't have to put our troops at risk.
lets see i think its childish to play PICK FAVORITES! THE SHADOW GOVDERMENT DOES THE PICKING NOT THE PRESIDENT HE IS THEIR PUPPET
That is called dispassionate government of inclusion for nation building. Not one sided or party government. He said it that both parties must bring lasting solutions and greatness.charting a new course or the road not taken.
