No Need to Worry about US National Security

US homeland securityBarry from DC’s homeland security princess, Janet Napolitano, first stated the US national security system worked in referring to an attempt to detonate explosives on board a US airliner landing in Detroit on Christmas. Today she is stumbling over herself to produce damage control for her previous appraisal. No doubt this is taking place at the ‘urging’ of others in the Obamanation.

But let’s not focus only on the Obama Administration’s reaction to a failed terrorist attack. Failed only because the terrorist fortunately botched the assignment. Members of the US Congress are equally disappointing in their response to the event.

from the House Committee on Homeland Security…..

The reported act of terrorism – whether directly related to al Qaeda or not – and the response to it will be the focus of an oversight hearing next month. The Committee will get to the bottom of what did and did not happen with Mr. Abdulmutallab and what security precautions need to take place in the future.”

from the Senate Committee on Homeland Security….

WASHINGTON - Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Joe Lieberman, ID-Conn., and Ranking Member Susan Collins, R-Me., announced Monday that they would convene a hearing in January to examine the layers of security meant to protect airline passengers from terrorist attacks but which accused terrorist Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab successfully evaded.

Hearings scheduled for January!!! So this is how are fine leaders respond to dropping the ball on national security. Not to worry folks, your elected and appointed leaders are on the job. They’re not concerned enough to interrupt their Christmas and New Year’s plans to deal with security breaches so you should not worry either. Just continue as before….. clueless.

    Let’s see, the alleged terrorist? ALLEGED are you kidding me? Real people tackled, put out the fire, grabbed the under garment, the needle and OUR FEARLESS LEADER, Oh excuse me, our FEARFUL LEADER, can’t tell it like the LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD. OBAMA whose side are you on anyway?

    When the Messiah finally addressed the ‘incident’ his description of the terrorist as an ‘isolated extremeist’ was a classic Obamanation denial of reality.

    How telling is it that al-Qaeda’s version of the truth that the attack was sponsored by them in retaliation for US military intervention in Yemen yet the plot was set in motion prior US military operations there?

    Two similar spin agendas, what does that say about the current American President?
