FINALLY Bi-Partisanship: Democrats Join Calls for Napalitano to Step Down
Fox News / The Lid ^ | 1/1/2010 | The Lid

Posted on 01/01/2010 5:35:01 PM PST by Shellybenoit

Maybe there will be peace in out time, After almost one year into the promised bi-partisan Presidency of Barak Obama, there is finally an issue that seems to be uniting Democrats and Republicans, DHS Secretary Janet Napalitano. The person charged with protecting America has been an absolute train-wreck as the head of Homeland Security.

It started early in her tenure when the DHS decided to stem terrorism with a program of profiling. While the intention was right on, the execution was a bit off. Instead of targeting people like radical Islamists, Napalitano's DHS wrote a document recommending to law enforcement that they target "evil right wingers," such as hero Americans returning from the war zones after serving their country, pro-lifers and generally anyone else who disagrees with President Obama's positions.

Perhaps her dumbest move was this past weekend, when talking about the Terrorist attack on Northwest flight 253 to Detroit. The DHS Secretary said that the thwarting of the attempt to blow up the Amsterdam-Detroit flight this week demonstrated that “the system worked.” HUH? The only thing that saved that flight from lighting up the Detroit Sky is the terrorist's fuse didn't work.

Napalitano will go down as one of the densest cabinet appointees ever...even with the MSN trying to cover for her.

There’s no guarantee her replacement will be any less of a socialist.

Seriously, what else should the Obama administration expect when they appointed all the unqualified, inept and dumbest people to these upper level jobs?
Stupid is as stupid does so I assume Obama is as dumb as the people he hired. Amazing.

Yep. Obama will probably continue getting Hillary-like appointees.

Virtually every sentence she utters is a verbal swipe at George W. Bush. She is obsessed by her hatred of Bush.

Is there some sort of ‘belligerent lesbian’ quota that accompanies every Dem administration?

Sorry, no. She needs to go now. Your prescription is akin to the reasoning of our enemies which will accept disasters for the nation so long as they can gain political advantage.

Napolitano is a disaster for the nation, and her continued tenure at DHS makes a disaster with many casualties more likely with each passing day. She needs to go now (though if she goes while making a scene and Obama handles it in a way that gives some sound-bites for an ad about how he surrounds himself with loons then has to toss them under the proverbial bus over and over, so we get some partisan advantage from her departure, that's fine) and she needs to be replaced with someone who understands assymetric warfare and has no multicultural binders.

Agreed, she needs to go. Sure, it will only be symbolic, but let’s face it, it would be hard even for Obama to find anyone worse.
