. . . or ignorance?
WASHINGTON – Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano says investigators did not have enough information to keep a terror suspect from boarding a flight bound for Detroit and that the system worked as it should have.Janet, sweetie, NOTHING worked.
Not screening, not intel, not databases.
Nothing.
Not even the bomb, which is why you were able to make that completely inane statement.
Ironically, he wasn't a "disgruntled military veteran" or a "right-wing extremist."
This just in:
A day after saying the system worked, Napolitano backtracked, saying her words had been taken out of context.
"Our system did not work in this instance," she said on NBC's "Today" show. "No one is happy or satisfied with that. An extensive review is under way."
Definition of "taken out of context:" I screwed up, but I'm not about to admit it.

I agree completely. That was entirely too close to being a horrible tragedy.
Any suspicion of ANY terrorist connection should be enough to not allow someone to fly to the US. We are not talking about taking away rights of citizens. This was a visitor from another country that had been granted a visa. I don't get it.
Apparently, we would rather give a jihadist the benefit of the doubt rather than offend anyone.
She's made a complete U-turn now and said that things did not "work they way they should have". I assume someone has handed her a$$ to her in a sling for her obviously asinine comments about the whole situation.
He was on a watch list, was flying from a country that has known terrorist "issues" via another country which has other "issues".
One hundred percent abject failure to spot a real terrorist on a real mission with a real bomb - despite all the sabre rattling that has gone on.
Very poor. Surely some people need to be disciplined?
