President Obama has made clear that a selection of Leon Panetta was intended as a clean break with the past, a break from secret detentions and coercive interrogation, a break from outsourcing its work to a small army of contractors, and a break from analysis that was not only wrong, but the product of bad practice, that helped lead our nation to war.

Context
