Well I guess its an improvement. If I had my way I would get rid of the entire “Homeland Security” department altogether along with the TSA and other entities pushed on the public during the hype of post-911. I frankly cannot see why the Defense Department cannot fulfill the role of “homeland security” as it did for over 200 years.
That was my thought when the Dept. of Homeland Security was first created. But, the people demanded action and what better way to do so than to create a whole new Department? Oh well. Consolidation certainly makes sense to me.
Hey listen buster! We're at threat level "Code Orange." No one knows just what the hell that means, but it's important to know just in case someone asks.
So just keep the shades drawn, hide under the bed, don't travel with toothpaste, keep our borders open, and we'll all be just fine.
