I think FR needs to have a poll as to who is the kookiest, Maulkin or Farah. I don't care much for Malkin's opinions on most things, but she is on target here. This woman Myers has no business in this position.
Chertoff, I believe, is clueless as head of DHS. He's a damned attorney, for heaven's sake! Attorneys spend their lives hedging and hemming and hawing and trying to figure out how to NOT do things.
So why is he heading up the one organization devoted to DOING THINGS, and doing them fast?
Ex-military or current military should be in executive positions dealing with Homeland Security. They know how to make decisions on the fly and break glass and worry about fixing things later.

Chertoff wants her in this position.
Look at it like this, if Congress re-organizes DHS, her position will be eliminated.

Well, I for one agree with Malkin most of the time. And I'm glad you see this as well. Perhaps one day, before something terrible happens to a US city, you will understand the GOP's Achilles heel. Unless Bush does absolutely everything he can, there's a very high probability that the GOP will be mud after the next Ground Zero.
The only hope for the GOP [in the future] is to distance itself from Bush's lack of border policy before it hits the fan. I wish we could save that future city, but when the Chief Executive calls pro-safe-borders people 'vigilantes', we'll just have to cross our fingers and hope that the next president reverses this mindset.
