“60 Minutes” sat down for a wide ranging interview with Defense Secretary Leon Panetta:
The only thing I found irritating about this interview is how they portray the hunt for Osama bin Laden. They make it seem as if Panetta rode into town on a white horse and got Bin Laden. Panetta was the beneficiary of years of intelligence work, much of which took place under Bush. Panetta was just the guy who saw it to the finish line. That said, Panetta seems like a competent guy. A real straight shooter. He’s perhaps the best hire of Obama’s presidency.
