11 days after the incident, Barry has a meeting on the subject.

But Homeland Security insists that everyone (except the president himself) was notified within 60-90 minutes. I guess not.

Our government clearly dropped the ball. President Obama has ordered a review into the intelligence failures leading up to the attempted Christmas Day bombing by Umar Farouk AbdulMutallab, but an equally important review needs to be made into how events were handled once AbdulMutallab attempted to carry out his plan.

Specifically, why weren’t the actions the Transportation Safety Administration outlines in our aviation manuals initiated, and what took place inside the federal Domestic Events Network in the immediate aftermath of the terror attempt?

Well, Captain....as a start I’d say it is because we have an incompetent leading(?) the nation and bunch of his handpicked fools running it!

"President Obama said that "once the suspect attempted to take down Flight 253, it's clear [that] Homeland Security and Aviation Security took all appropriate actions."

What an A-hole.

What did Obama know and when did he know it?

I hope this fellow isn’t holding his breath waiting for any answers from the Obama administration. Maybe their spokesman will tell him he is the problem, not the terrorists, or some other line of democrat B.S.!

Obama doesn’t care. He’s got his ride, and there’s no threat of terrorism there. As for the rest of us - well, suuucckkaaahs!

Why is he complaining. Didn’t he get the word - the system worked. How often while in flight does he receive system worked communications?

Once again the Obama staff is caught lying.

It seems Obama and his staff believe that a lie is better than the truth.

Goodness, it must keep them awake all night trying to remember every lie that spoke the prior day.

Ahah! There is the problem. As a veteran, the author is a probable suspect enemy of the State, along with Christians and Constitutionalists! A good thing that DHS has profiled THESE potential threats, and that we have Tin Janet as Sword and Shield of the State!

Thank you Barack Hussein Obama!

Thank you Southern Poverty Law Center!

Your levels of intellectual prowess have never been seen in our leadership before . . .

(I really am sincere on that last point)

Well heck... they didn’t even bother to notify the President for over three hours.

0bamao has his big meeting today as a CYA, so when the next plane isn’t so lucky and rains down in pieces after one of his muzzie brothers blows it up. In reality, Hussein couldn’t care less about the people on board.

I don’t believe that Obama gives a rat’s @$$. THere could have been multiple “bombers” readying to explode the a/c they were on, and none of the pilots were alerted to the fact. Sickening.
