The terror suspect who tried to blow up a Detroit-bound plane is the son of a Nigerian banker who alerted U.S. authorities to his "extreme religious views" months ago, it was reported Saturday.
The father, Alhaji Umaru Mutallab, a former minister and chairman of First Bank in Nigeria, is shocked that his son was even was allowed to fly to the U.S., family members told the Nigerian newspaper This Day.
It doesnt surprise me that hussein obama and his thugs in the white house ignored this warning. I believe he would like America's attention on anything else besides what he is really up to.
This plane landed safely in this incident and they definitely should have taken it as serious as this previous attempt

In late July 2001, Afghanistan’s Foreign Minister Wakil Ahmed Muttawakil learned that Osama bin Laden was planning a “huge attack” on targets inside America. The attack was imminent, and would kill thousands, he learned from the leader of the rebel Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, which was closely allied with al-Qaeda at the time. Muttawakil sent an emissary to pass this information on to the US Consul General, and another US official, “possibly from the intelligence services.” Sources confirmed that this message was received, but supposedly not taken very seriously, because of “warning fatigue” arising from too many terror warnings.

That plane didn't land safely but even thought that administration was also warned, we don't really care do we. Unlike some man calling in a warning, we had one from a foreign minister of another nation, but didn't matter.

I'm sure, being the highly educated and loving, peace-filled Christian that you are, you are aware that the father never notified the White House, right?
I mean, he informed the U.S. Embassy, which has nothing to do with the White House and "his thugs".
Your assertion suggests you believe otherwise, or just reveals a fundamental lack of understanding how government operates or the facts in the case you are judging, so I just want us to be clear that you are absolutely wrong... again.

Valid point. When you receive 100 warnings a day vague and not at all specific which ones do you act upon?
The answer is that you use our intel network and hope to get it right.
Keep security tight and hope that it works.
But lets face facts. We can not stop every attempt. As long as our borders are wide open there will be opprotunity.
This isn't Obama's fault. This is all of our fault. We complain about increased airport security and then complain when it is relaxed and something happens.
Can't have it both ways.

EXCELLENT Rebuttal.
It is amazing how some people on the right can think.
He's been on the watch list for two years, why don't you blame Bush?
So does Clinton get the credit for 911? Those bad guys came here under his watch. A lot of things happened under his watch that led up to 911.
No it happened under Bush and as a result he owns it.

You gotta love the right wing desperation. You quote an article that says

And from that you indict the "Obama" Administration. Unreal. The smell of RW desperation is about us all.
