DeMint on the subject:
“I may have disagreements with [the president] on issues...But he is my president, he deserves our respect, and we need forget that nonsense ...He is not only a citizen, he is our president.”

DeMint is not the brightest bulb in the closet. Years ago, when he was my local Representative, the database containing the names of possible terror suspects was hacked into. I wrote to him demanding an investigation into the matter as to how this could be allowed to happen. I explained to him the facts of the case. The break in was the result of the IT department failing to update a security patch in Windows. The security flaw was known to IT professionals 6 months prior, and 3 months prior there was a well publicized virus that exploited the flaw. He wrote back that he contacted the IT department of the agency ( I can't remember which one - I think it was State ), and they assured him no data was compromised. I wrote back to him pointing out the security flaw allowed total admin privileges, so log files could be changed so there would be no trace of what was done. But the main point of my letter ( both the first and second ) was why the IT department did not update the patch when the alert first came out 6 months prior, or after a major virus had hit 3 months prior that took advantage of that flaw. I told him at least the security manager should be fired over that. He wrote back with the EXACT form letter he sent me previously saying that the IT department assured him no data was compromised - TOTALLY IGNORING the incompetence of the IT staff that allowed the breach to occur. Like I said, DeMint is not the brightest of bulbs.
