During a House hearing this morning, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano criticized the Drudge Report for highlighting stories about the departments purchases of ammunition and MRAP (Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected) vehicles.

Lesbians in authority are not credible. Just like baby killer Reno, lesbians in power are way too dangerous.
Her estrogen challenged brain can’t even comprehend that Drudge does not report the news but just links to stories.
She is so lucky being criminally stupid (and ugly) is not a crime or she would get life without parole.
Napolitano could clear up the confusion by telling the truth.
How many bullets and WHY hollow point? Hollow points cost more - much more - the ONLY difference is hollow point can pass through KEVLAR. Who owns Kevlar? Not ordinary citizens - member of our police departments and military forces.
Why would Homeland Insecurity be going after police, members of the FBI and Marines? Big Sis needs to talk. Real newspapers need to ask questions.
She quickly stopped that bagpipe order, didn’t she?
If it's a billion bullets or ten million, there are questions that need to be answered.

MRAPS on a train in USA? I tried to find a vid I saw before with more than just MRAPS on it....Just FYI

What Janet Napolitano is doing is called, “Shooting the Messenger”....
That said, while she ‘missed’ on Boston - she does know what kind of birth control any random conservative’s wife uses....
More credible than you’ll ever be, butch.
Right
The military ordered over 10000. I wondered if they were built by the lowest bidder, like in Mexico and were being railed up.
Don’t know if the ammunition pruchase is a myth or not but here are sources that I had saved;
Obama DHS Purchases 2,700 Light-Armored Tanks to Go With Their 1.6 Billion Bullet Stockpile
1.6 Billion Rounds Of Ammo For Homeland Security? It’s Time For A National Conversation
“Napolitano: The Drudge Report Is Not Credible”
A lot more credible than you.
I’m kinda surprised that Matt Drudge hasn’t been “Breitbarted”.
here is a quote from the article you posted:
“Starting in 2003, orders of 50 million and 225 million .40 S&W hollow point ammunition totaling 275 million rounds were purchased. After the expiration of the five year contracts in 2008, ICE purchased an additional 575 million rounds of .40 S&W hollow point ammunition with two separate orders (200 million and 375 million). Now, with the expiration of the 2008 contract, ICE has ordered a maximum of 450 million rounds over the next five years.”
so they DID buy the ammo.
You said they didn't buy the ammo.
The article inserted the straw man word “unprecedented” when debunking that portion of the story.
Hollow points pass through Kevlar? While I could easily be mistaken, that doesn’t sound right to me. I would have thought that it would expand against the Kevlar and that would keep it from penetrating.
The lady doth protest too much, methinks*.
*With an apology to ladies. Just quoting Shakespeare.
Only this group of statists think it is their position to announce who is credible and who isn’t. This has never been done before. The closest thing I can recall is Clinton’s attack on talk radio and Rush. Similar, but different. This group has determined that they are the arbiter of ‘real’ news vs fake news. Some like Hillary deem Al Jezeera as credible, where any US outlet that disagrees illegitimate.
Glad to know they solved the Boston case already so that she has time to be a political hack in front of Congress.
the ammo is supposedly for “target practice”
um... why do you need to use expensive hollow point bullets to shoot paper targets?
Lets just assume this is all innocent... at the very least it’s WASTEFUL to have the government buying expensive hollow point bullets for people to train with shooting paper targets.
In a country that is going broke that cant even afford tours of the white house, I would think buying less expensive bullets for employees to target shot with would be a high priority!
It’s obvious she doesn’t know what Drudge does.
