New Member for Obama's Cabinet

Leon Panetta, Obama's new CIA Chief is a practicing Catholic, who teaches a course each year at the Jesuit-run Santa Clara University.Mr Panetta has a strong pro-abortion voting record as a California Congressman, including co-sponsoring the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA) in 1990. If memory serves you well, he was President Clinton's Chief of Staff and supported the president's veto of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban.

With the appointment of Leon Panetta, President Obama has continued a trend of appointing pro-abortion "Catholics" to high profile positions in his cabinet and government. Do you think Obama means to send a message to those Catholics who opposed his election, or do you think that he is striking a serious blow to the pro-life serious Catholic image in America?
