"I've been in bureaucracies, even at the top of one, and I promise you I never knew what was going on any farther down than the next two levels. That was on purpose. To become involved in the day to day operations is micro-management and nobody should want that."
When the media or Feds are involved in a company's business I guarantee you, the CEO had better know it. Especially so he doesn't get caught flatfooted by the media with whom he had a scheduled interview. Heads would roll in a corporation. In fact the CEO's head would roll... to take a page out of the Islamic terrorist, 'how to treat your prisoners handbook'.
Our enemies have to know, now is the time to strike, with such celebrated incompetence as arranged by Obama inability to judge prospective administrators.
Brennan and Napolitano what a pair, throw in 'lap dog' Holder and you have three of a kind, but still a losing hand.
Kracer !!! ... On The Money !
Indeed your last sentence speaks volumes of this pitiful wittle threesome and their seemingly idiotic similarities to the 1950's comedy group known as the "Three Stooges" !!!
How did America ever get so damn lucky as to have this utterly pitiful crew assigned to such incredibly important govt. positions ???
America These days !!! Have A Jolly Good Evening Blokes !

We'll have to agree to disagree on this. The whole point of an organization is to spread out the responsibility and whether the top boss knows some particular item isn't nearly as important as the one who has responsibility for a response knowing.
I'm not concerned that the head man didn't know. I WOULD be concerned if the person who SHOULD have known didn't.
I think y'all are just looking for excuses to criticize. Had you found out he'd been down at field level dictating operations and responses, I suppose you would have criticized that too.
He IS the person responsible for knowing what is going on, not some low-level clerk sitting at a computer. Brennan knew, Big Sis knew, yet this incompetent boob sits there with his finger up his nose.
At least we had heard of the plot/arrest before the TOP intelligence official in the obama administration. I mean, just look at the guy.
This is actually how things go during a terrorist attack.
The public is the first to know of course.
Then the government 'follow up' happens.
The antithesis of how this whole national security system is supposed to work, eh?
They've hobbled themselves by ignoring the problem for what it is. By not looking towards the real suspect peoples. And now by looking toward their own citizens as suspect.
So....you're "comfortable" with the TOP US INTELLIGENCE OFFICIAL being utterly clueless about a huge bomb plot and arrests?
I (for one) am comfortable that the security of our nation does not depend on what any one person knows at any one moment... no matter how high they are.
