Why We Should Say No to Brennan
As Obama puts together his transition teams for various departments and looks to future appointments, and we approach the exciting day of January 20th, I think it is important to be clear and to provide a strong body of resources for progressive opposition to John Brennan.
I think it is important to recognize that we can do a lot better than John Brennan. The purpose of this diary is to collect important sources, show evidence of Brennan's complicity in the worst of the Bush administration's programs, demonstrate Brennan's association with the most conservative aspects of the intelligence community, and show that there are better experts out there.
Thanks to the people who authored these sources, and esp. to BTD for bringing up Brennan in the first place. I hope this is not too repetitive but I think it is important to gather all this information in one diary/place.
