"DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano said that the thwarting of the attempt to blow up the Amsterdam-Detroit flight this week demonstrated that "the system worked." Asked by CNN's Candy Crowley on "State of the Union" how that could be possible when the young Nigerian who sought to set off the bomb was able to smuggle explosive liquid onto the flight, Napolitano responded: "We're asking the same questions." Let me see if I got this right - an admitted jihadist, father warned DHS and FBI, he got on a flight with explosives and injectable ignitor fluid, was on a watch list and still got a visa, almost set one of the devices off, was subdued by the passengers until landing. Yep - the system worked alright - perfectly if you live in Obamaland where everything is a B+ effort and George Orwell is your language expert. You know - I'm normally incredulous about some of the things that politicians say and do because most of them are morons, but this is so outrageous, it's incomprehensible. She needs to be fired and fired now. That's twice under her watch something has gone hideously wrong on an air plane and passengers have had to take action. She was talking about the reaction after there was a security breach. The plane landed safely. Additional safety measures are being put in place, something that should have been done during the last administration. This has been a known problem for quite a while. If anything, she's guilty of mis-speaking, so you should probably take a chill pill. -- Nom=de=Plume |
