I am glad that you agree. Let's see........................ a community organizer for president, a tax dodger as the head of the IRS, a communist for the "green czar", a tax dodger and thug as head of the justice department.............. the list goes on.

At least Clinton appointed some competent people. These twits are one comedy after another. It is like kids playing dress up as adults.

I'm confused.

From the link:
"By the time Customs and Border Protection officials spotted Shahzad's name on the passenger list and recognized him as the bombing suspect they were looking for, he was in his seat and the plane was preparing to leave the gate. They knew to look for him because of updates to the no-fly list made earlier in the day."
Now why Shahzad, who was in the system but wasn't flagged at the airline's check-in counter is anyone's guess, but blame cannot be laid in Napolitano's lap. It is also hard to understand how Napolitano is responsible for the fact that JFK boards approximately 1600 passengers per hour, and given that fact and the fact that at some point prior to take off CBP did in fact find Shahzad's name on the flight manifest seems to indicate, at least to me, that the system while imperfect did in fact work. So, why would this constitute a rational reason for calling for Naplitano's resignation?

You must be new around here.

There's more of this type of off with their head nonsense on this forum than there are mosquitoes in the Okeefenokee Swamp.

Seems the system worked as best as it could, and as it was designed. ALL facets of the process need to actively "work" in order for the system to work. I'm still not happy with the fix, but it is more towards what needs to be in place.
Hmmm, part of the "system" is to identify potential threats. He bought a ticket to the MidEast, paid cash, had no luggage a few hours before the flight......if that didn't raise red flags, we're doomed as a nation.

Yes, just like the underwear bomber. Look....Napalotano had nothing to do with this, or air travel, or anything remotely having to do with securing our country-borders-citizens.!!!!
She a pupula to barak and not worth the 220lbs she tips the scales at.
Arizona is cleaning up after her mess. Now the country will have to mop up all the crap she left behind. One thing's for sure...she does absolutely nothing for our country...except maybe represent lesbian women in politics.

Now there was a fact filled and substantive argument if I ever read one.

Even Rush Limbaugh would be embarrassed by this argument.
