This just gets worse & worse. Apparently Obama has every agency in America including the CIA, DHS, FBI, etc. looking the other way rather than profile Muslims!

[cripplecreek]

Just one of those little things Obozo neglected to mention while he was blaming Bush.

[SoldierDad]

But, but, but, Obozo gave a statement on T.V. that these agencies failed to communicate with each other about this terrorist. He wouldn’t lie about something so important as this/sarc

[VRWC For Truth]

Didn’t Barry dis the CIA at one time. Payback is a bi-otch.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

This is just days after the Fort Hood shooting too.
Heads need to roll in the feds.

This is certainly news and it is now quite clear why Obama interrupted his round of golf today for another PR session. But, hindsight being perfect as usual, we all should have realized earlier that when daddy walked into the U.S. Embassies he wasn't there to talk to the Ambassador. U.S. Embassies are always staffed with CIA personnel and a case like this would just naturally be handled by the CIA.

Pretty easy to predict that heads will roll. The CIA for sure, perhaps a senior aide to Ms. Clinton (a shot across the bow) and even Janet is not safe. This is a PR disaster and Team Obama is going to have to find someone to blame. That shouldn't be too hard but, as usual with Obama, he will avoid firing the person who is really to blame since that would require the first Presidential resignation since Nixon.

Aren’t you glad that Barak Obama is in charge instead of that hothead George W. Bush? /sarc

[cripplecreek]

Honestly I don’t think he even left the golf course to give his little audio presser.

[Shqipo]

Leon Panetta about to get flushed.

[devistate one four]

Thaat’s just effing great!

Gorlic has to be around somewhere, this reeks of her!

[TBall]

More and more I wonder why the bomb didn’t go boom. Bad detonator maybe, but I guess only the shadow knows.

[mockingbyrd]

So the Nigerian father tried to do more to protect this country than Barry and his gang?

[PA-RIVER]

Yes, apparently the Nigerian father had more concern for American citizens than did the Kenyan, Obamma.

[PA-RIVER]

Maybe we could elect a Nigerian Muslim next time?

[PA-RIVER]

The fort hood shooter is also related to this guy. They both had the same contacts in Yemen.

This is stinking so bad ..... Joe Biden's warming up in the bullpen now.

The initial meeting Nov. 19 led to a broader gathering of multiple U.S. agencies the next day, including representatives of the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the State Department and the CIA, in which the information was shared, a U.S. official said.

Now look at this snip from CNN:

The father of terrorism suspect Umar Farouk AbdulMutallab talked about his son's extremist views with someone from the CIA and a report was prepared, but the report was not circulated outside the agency, a reliable source told CNN's Jeanne Meserve on Tuesday.

Had that information been shared, the 23-year-old Nigerian who is alleged to have bungled an attempt to blow up a jetliner as it was landing in Detroit, Michigan, on Christmas Day might have been denied passage on the Northwest Airlines flight, the source said.

I wonder who the source was that blamed it on the CIA? They are not thinking their lies through.

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Names must be named. Heads must roll.

Americans are FED UP, Zero!

I nominate:

Napolitano / Clinton / Holder (for calling the terrorist “alleged” / and, of course, their boss - Obamao.

Heard Dan Burton also say Napolitano must go.

Somebody stuffed this information down - and I want to know was it on purpose??? Or was it pure incompetence???

For either reason - HEADS MUST ROLL!

[fatima]

God bless the Father.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Jeanne Meserve reported the CNN story. I would love to know who her source is. Now we learn everyone knew about him, but her source wanted to pin it on the CIA.

This is a major story within a major story. IMHO, this is more than pass the buck. It is destroy the CIA.

Maybe the flame had not reach the bomber's crotch before he was attacked by determined passenger. Or maybe he was already in a serious daze and could not complete task; or perhaps, someone's prayer was answered at that moment.

We may never know. That said, we do know, enough terrorists to threaten us another day; and another. . .
