Roland Martin: Leon Panetta ‘Shameful,’ ‘Disgraceful,’ ‘Dishonored the Troops’

‘It’s all about him, it’s not about the United States of America’

"Not only that. Not only he [Leon Panetta] was secretary defence, he also was head of the CIA. But let's just be honest, OK. You don't have profiles and courage in individual's character -- not many of them left in this city. You don't have any of the statesmen that you used to have who understood time and place. What you have -- folks now, who simply want to make a buck or they simply want to get it in. And Leon Panetta's actions are shameful, they are disgraceful and they certainly speak to his character.

And I think for him to make these rounds, writing  this particular book, shows that's it's all about him, and it's not about United States of America. So he's dishonored the truth, dishonored the presidency, and frankly, he let down America."
