Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, leaving the funeral of a murdered Border Patrol agent Wednesday, scolded a reporter for asking her to address the victim's family's concerns that not enough is being done to secure the southern border.
The family of agent Brian Terry had complained that Napolitano had offered them "empty words" when she called to express her condolences. Terry's father, Kent Terry, in an interview with ABC affiliate KGUN, said he told Napolitano to "wake your man up in the White House," to which she replied that he's done more in two years than any president.
Napolitano attended the Detroit funeral Wednesday where she vowed "swift justice" for Terry's killers. But asked about the family's concerns outside the service, Napolitano said "now is not the time to talk about all that has been done."

Very interesting. Thanks for the link, STARWISE.
Napolitano, who I understand is like Orrin G. Hatch from PA originally, is further proof of the ineptness of AZ voters!
Look at just that list ..!
Purposeful dissembling of our democratic republic,
the beacon of freedom on the globe.
Shivers ..
We sure need hope and Christmas in our lives, all
its peace, joys and blessings. God bless and protect
us this Christmas and in the New Year with SOME sane,
ANY sane, dependable allies in our govt looking out
for us and our survival.
Merry Christmas to you and yours, SC.
Sounds like something TOTUS would say...
Barack, is that you?
Well, Bush did pimp for Amnesty: "See you at the signing."
;)
But, I guess if you say so... it's Bush's fault.
Yeah, I know what the thread is about - that has absolutely nothing to do with my response to your comment. Bush did zip for border security and for eight years the problem has metastasized. It's inarguable; I don't know what you're complaining about.
If now is "not the time to talk"....then, why even answer the question?
We had a thread posted concerning Janet Incompitano's arrogance. Another poster responded to the OP by bringing up Bush and blaming him.
I made the observation that the reply sounded like something the Obama administration would say in response to criticism, bringing it right back to the current administration.
Then you chimed in to take a ride on the Bash Bush Bandwagon.
Enjoy the ride, and have a Merry Christmas!
You seriously believe the utter chaos on the border all started during the Obama admin? Seriously?
You consider any justified criticism of the Bush admin. "bashing?" Rove, is that you?
Merry Christmas to you, too.
