Napolitano: "The system worked"

DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano said that the thwarting of the attempt to blow up the Amsterdam-Detroit flight this week demonstrated that "the system worked."

Asked by CNN's Candy Crowley on "State of the Union" how that could be possible when the young Nigerian who sought to set off the bomb was able to smuggle explosive liquid onto the flight, Napolitano responded: "We're asking the same questions."

Napolitano added that there was "no suggestion that [the bomber] was improperly screened."

“The Dutchman who sprang into action and saved the day must be surprised to hear he was trained by DHS (/snic).”

Geez, you conservative women can be so petty. My trophy wife and one of her SIL’s sound just like you.

My wife’s really conservative SIL said, “Janet said everything went right until the Damn Racist Bastard Dutchguy stopped the brave warrior from Africa.”

Tapper thinks so too. He kept questioning Napolitano, but she kept handing Tapper a crap sandwich.

Tapper obviously has no future at ABC. He's asking tough questions instead of fawning ones.

That Janet---she knows how to be "politically correct" better than anybody. No wonder she got the DHS job.

Driving’s better but avoid snowstorms. They look terrible. Oh, Karl Rove is disputing Obama’s statement that this was “isolated extremist”. Yeah, Obama lied just now from Hawaii. Why is this a big secret? I think we have a right to know if a squad is coming to do another 9-11.

“I think the important thing to recognize here is that once this incident occurred, everything happened that should have,” she said on ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday. “We trained for this. We planned for this.”

Yeah, Janet....the best laid plans of mice 'Rats and Men....ahh...ahh..I give up....

This statement is so ridiculous; it makes one believe the way to prevent terrorism is to allow them on air craft and capture them in the act there (with a little help from a Dutch passenger).

This makes two terrorist attacks (not to mention the acts of piracy and hacking attacks) in the last eleven months.

One can only imagine how bad off our country will be in after a couple of more years of Obozo’s fools like Janet in charge.

Fall out shelters will be back in fashion.
