Have no fear – Janet Napolitano is on the case!
For a day and a half after the low-life terrorist Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab failed to deliver radical Islam’s Christmas present to the United States, the Obama administration didn’t have much to say on the subject. I guess it’s understandable to imagine the difficulty in formulating a response from an exclusive golf course in Hawaii, but on December 27th we finally heard from Obama’s DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano.
They would have been better off remaining silent.
The pathetically inept Napolitano told CNN that “there is no suggestion that the suspect was improperly screened” and that “the system worked.” If the system is based on airline passengers taking down and restraining al Qaeda trained terrorists in mid flight, then the system worked perfectly. Otherwise, Napolitano should be fired immediately.
Am I crazy, or does Napolitano look like John Kerry in drag? Has anyone ever seen them in the same room together?
Just when you think that her stupidity and incompetence couldn’t get any worse, she goes on to say that “We have no indication that this is part of anything larger.” Really? There’s also no indication that she has a brain floating around in her bulbous cranium!
No Janet, there’s no indication of anything larger at all! Much like the Fort Hood murderer Nidal Malik Hasan, Abdulmutallab is probably just a lone nut who was driven off the deep end because there was no Halal food served on the flight.
Besides the fact that Abdulmutallab was already on a terrorist watchlist, his father told the State Department months ago that he was worried about his son’s radical religious views. It has also come to light that he was in contact with a well known radical cleric by the name of Anwar al-Awlaki, and that he may have taken bomb-making courses in Yemen. These classes aren’t electives, but core requirements in al Qaeda’s jihadist 101 curriculum.
With all of this being known about Abdulmutallab, he was still granted a visa and allowed to board an American based airline with a one-way ticket.
You’re right Janet; there is no suggestion that the suspect was improperly screened, there’s no indication that this is part of anything larger, and the system worked.
We’re so fortunate to have someone like Janet Napolitano in charge of our Homeland Security. Well done President Obama – another stellar cabinet appointment!

The only way that the system would work is not letting people with explosives or weapons on the plane in the first place.
Napolitano is a political hack who doesn’t have any business being in the position she is in. I almost think that Napolitano is a guy in drag filling a diversity quota for government hiring guidelines…
