O's aide terror-fying: Top expert full of puzzling excuses
NY Post ^ | January 4, 2010 | Charles Hurt

WASHINGTON -- First it was delu sion. Now it is denial.

Let's just hope the Obama administration works through this vexing 12-step program they're in before al Qaeda decides to launch another attack.

Last week, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano assured us that the "system worked" when Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab nearly blew up an American jetliner on Christmas Day with a bomb smuggled in his loin.

And just when you thought "Big Sis" had easily retired the award for Biggest Turkey in the Global War on Terror, up steps John Brennan.

Awwwww!

But...but... Brennan just seemed so confident, reassuring and competent, I didn’t even bother to note his circular argument.

The Oministratio can’t secure a “covert” CIA basen. The Oministration can’t secure a gated Army base. The Oministration can’t even secure the Whitehouse. How can we expect them to secure international private aviation?

A dead defense council team will solve the problem.

The trash of the legal profession is responsible for the problem and advocate aiding and abetting the enemy .....for pay.

Being dead is unprofitable. Once the profit is gone, the military can resume rightful control.

I hope the entire world is as tired of the “Bush-dog Ate My Homework” excuses from this bunch of incompetent fools as I am.

These Obama officials do not seem to be the sharpest knives in the drawer. It seems that the only way Obama can seem sharp is to have a lot of really dull knives around him. When you're as sharp as a frying pan, a spoon seems sharp. Bring out the GOP knives for the next elections.

Let me make it CLEAR. Let us not forget how the military Able Danger Project was disbanded.
And let us not forget, all the known Islamic ran camps located in so many states "off in the woods" areas, that are allowed to somehow stay in tack. This country has become so open and so soft politically in the name of often twisted justice and fair equality for all that we house tens of thousands of jihadist within our very boarders.
These are the clowns do not have to travel to the mid east or far east to train for becoming bombers on planes and malls, federal and state buildings etc..
What is the zero administration going to do about this growing threat.
Gasp..... OK ... I won't hold my breath any longer. I know the answer. And it is zip.
And sadly like I have commented elsewhere. It is not only the Arabs and other foreign Muslim terrorist groups we have to contend with. But the folks that populate our big and lesser big cities and elsewhere that become members of the the several Muslim sects dominant in this land.

Counterterrorism in Obama's Washington by Daniel Pipes

Implementation of the inept policies outlined by Brennan spells danger for Americans, American interests, and American allies. The bitter consequences of these mistakes soon enough will become apparent.

"Specifics are no better. Most fundamentally, Brennan calls for appeasing terrorists: "Even as we condemn and oppose the illegitimate tactics used by terrorists, we need to acknowledge and address the legitimate needs and grievances of ordinary people those terrorists claim to represent." Which legitimate needs and grievances, one wonders, does he think Al-Qaeda represents?"
Phil. As you are well aware... if we where back during the American Revolution this f**king crap head would have been placed on trial for treason against the United States.
We are so screwed for another three years it is pathetic. I cannot bear to think if the zero suit or another democrat or any RINO where to gain the WH in 2012, what we could expect for our future and our loved ones (children in particular) future.
To think this clown so long involved in CIA operations in different capacities as well as other positions of national defense status comes off as he does.... it is a very bad dream.

You mean Brennan was fibbing Sunday morning when he called himself non-partisan?
