Apparently the fellows in al Qaeda took as a personal insult Secretary of Homeland Anxiety Janet Napolitano's comment Sunday that their role in the foiled Detroit airliner bombing wasn't clear but would be investigated. Yesterday, al Qaeda's ascendant franchise in the Arabian peninsula saved Secretary Napolitano the trouble of plowing through all the layers of the national-security bureaucracy for an answer.
The terrorist organization put out a pointed statement not only claiming responsibility but also mocking the U.S.'s ability to stop them. Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, they said, "dealt a huge blow to the myth of American and global intelligence services and showed how fragile its structure is."

It would be interesting to know how much Obama has changed the war on terror from the Bush Administration. Something we will most likely not ever know.
An apt description, indeed!
Secretary Incompitano will be out with a statement soon warning us that we musn’t jump to conclusions, that this “apparant communication” is “being analyzed by experts” and that we’ll “know more in a few weeks, when the investigative process has a chance to play out.”
Al Qaeda’s real and clear message: We will continue to impliment “bleed-until-bankruptcy” strategy.

Apparently the terrorists got the message that the war on terror is over with. Two terrorists attacks in two months.
I betcha that Barry is feeling so sulky and hurt these days.
How could those meanies attack America after all he has done to kiss up to them? How dare they interrupt his well-deserved Hawaiian vacation with this icky stuff. Don’t they know he has a Nobel Peace Prize???
It’s orchestrated crap to to deflect from the ‘healthcare’ crap they’re trying to shove down our throats. Maybe I have my tinfoil hat screwed on too tight. I do not believe anything about what is going on these days. Distraction???
Nah. I don’t believe it’s orchestrated.
I just think it shows how incompetent this administration is at trying to run the country.
They don’t have the brains to pull off and orchestrated attack because they’d get caught at it big time.
A real commander in chief would:
1-Immediately declare the perpetrator as an enemy combatant, tell his lawyer to take a hike, and begin the water boarding.
2-Ask Yemen if they like Iraq's new form of government.
Al Qaeda’s Clear Message
Fruit of the boom.
Please can we hit reset yet? I want all these people who represent us in name only to be put in orange jumpsuits and sent to GITMO with the other terrorists.
They want us all dead. We're using their carbon units and oxygen.
