Report: Brennan Out of Consideration For Intelligence Post
See also Greenwald, a true champion here, who took up the struggle in the face of STFUism. Brennan out:
John Brennan, President-elect Barack Obama's top adviser on intelligence, has taken his name out of the running for any intelligence position in the new administration. In a letter Tuesday, Brennan wrote letter to Obama that he did not want to be a distraction. His potential appointment has raised a firestorm in liberal blogs who associate him with the Bush administration's interrogation, detention and rendition policies.
In case people were wondering, THIS is why you do not wait to express your "concern" about issues and personnel.
Speaking for me only
