Fox News: CIA Tracked Plane Bomber Since August
Tuesday, December 29, 2009 | Kristinn

Posted on 12/29/2009 3:51:39 PM PST by kristinn

Chris Wallace (filling in for Bret Baier)just reported that Fox News confirms that the CIA was tracking Northwest Airlines flight 253 bommber Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab since August. He did not say more than that.

No wonder Obama spoke out again today about a systemic failure. He knew tis news was going to come out.

This terrorist getting through our defenses is going to be the responsibility of his administration, not President Bush's.

Heads need to roll and folks would be getting fired on the spot if I was in charge.

This is utter stupidity and a fialure on a near epic scale, especially given that we are post 9/11. Pathetic, uncalled for, and a sign of failure on numerous levels.

If The O wants to throw someone under a bus, there is that Secretary of State... what's her name again?

The one with a copy of his long form BC? The one who has the keys to Ft Marcy Park? That one?

I don't think so.

Thats right that one Blonde passenger said on CNN that someone stood up(passenger) and filmed the entire (after episode). No one has come forward with that tape. Who was it and why is that tape not in a 24/7 news cycle yet??

"Expect the Kenyan to throw Leon Panetta under the bus very soon." Looks like they've already worked him over pretty good!

If all else fails and blaming Bush no longer works, blame the CIA. Never mind the fact that the CIA’s hands are tied. B.O. has them in a no-win situation.
