Was it the er...uh..Peter Principle?

Good that she resigned, but this incompetence could not have just started under her authority alone. It takes a long time for an organization, once admired for it’s ability, to become this unraveled. This slacking off may have been going on since the beginning of the O adminstration, or since the late stages of Bush’s second term, when it became a national pastime for liberals to openly display their dislike of GWB.

Obviously not big enough for the job.

[DoughtyOne]

Evidently not...

[Forward the Light Brigade]

She had to go! It shows she has some sense of honor.

“Was it the er...uh..Peter Principle?”

More likely the sister principle, “The Peterless Principle!”

So is Clapper going next?

Probably not. Moral of story - If you are working for Obama, get some dirt on the guy so you can have some job security.

Gee, they weer doing better when they were blowing off steam during their off-time with hookers.

[Rummyfan]

GOOD!

… this incompetence could not have just started under her authority alone.

Agreed. It seems safe to say the mindset and general world view of those attracted to serving in the SS is quite the opposite of those associated with the current administration since 2009. Of course, her personal leadership style may have exacerbated existing conditions.

[Rummyfan]

Well.... Bye.

[Parley Baer]

That is a start but what we really need is for Obama to resign.

ping per your request

Good riddance. Maybe it will start a trend.

Wow.

First time that “Mistakes were made” and “We must do more” did not work their usual magic.
