About that Attempted Terrorist Attack..

Obama is much too busy playing golf in Hawaii to respond....

and the woman Obama put in charge of Homeland security, who once suggested our troops and conservatives were a danger to our country, now insults our intelligence by declaring the system worked even though a muslim terrorist tried to blow up a plane on Christmas...

Jonah Goldberg and others are calling for Napolitano to be fired
The head of the Department of Homeland Security isn't helping. I watched her on three shows and each time she was more annoying, maddening and absurd than the pevious appearance. It is her basic position that the "system worked" because the bureaucrats responded properly after the attack. That the attack was "foiled" by a bad detonator and some civilian passengers is proof, she claims, that her agency is doing everything right. That is just about the dumbest thing she could say, on the merits and politically.
Here she is her own words, over at RealClearPolitics.
