The President taking blame for security breaches is pure idiocy, he's a lousy manager and his incompetent subordinates should be fired.

The President played while 'Rome' burned, well really he played tennis and golf while the country wondered what kind of a response he was going to give for the TERRORIST ATTACK in Detroit. He waited three days before getting up in front of the teleprompter to give a rather weak kneed response that was about as firm as a bowl of runny oatmeal. In the meantime he had his head of Homeland Security, the effervescent Janet Napolitano, in front of the cameras twice, once telling the world that our system works and then after someone explained to what had happened she got up and said there was essentially a small problem. At the same time the head of our counter terrorism efforts went on a ski trip, great, I laud the fact that he is a good family man but when you get a big government job, with a big government salary and all of the perks that come with it you work seven days a week twenty four hours a day for the term of your employment, and that's that.

There were also a jillion or so more gaffs and gaps in our security system because the Obama people have been systematically dismantling many of the safeguards that were put into place by the prior administration. It doesn't take a Republican to tell you why we hadn't been attacked until these guy's took over, they brought this on themselves. Now they are scrambling to figure out how to close the holes they have opened in our security net and it 'ain't gonna' be easy. They have demoralized our intelligence network by their constant threats of prosecution for everything imaginable, they have demoralized our troops by imposing rules of engagement that make their job even more perilous than it already is and they refuse to treat terrorists like terrorists should be, with maximum malice.

Mr. Obama appears to have drunk a little too much of his own punch as it appears he thinks he can tell the American people that he has everything under control, that all of his department heads won't make any mistakes again and we little people should not concern ourselves with higher things like the workings of government and then has his people attack anyone who has the audacity to question his wisdom. The individuals named are all a couple of pay scales beyond their ability to include 44 himself. The only way it appears the American people will be able to remedy this mess is during the mid-term elections this year, that's 2010 for you Democrats and again in 2012 when the Prez comes up for re-election.
