There's a massive conflict of interest -- along with ideological problems -- in Barack Obama's questionable pick to head the review of the failing watch-list "system" that carelessly allowed terrorist Abdulmutallab to get on board the flight to Detroit to try and blow it up. The questionable pick is one John Brennan, and here are his two biggest flaws as they relate to his ability to be able to conduct a competent and ethical review of the watch-list "system."

The questionable pick is one John Brennan, and here are his two biggest flaws as they relate to his ability to be able to conduct a competent and ethical review of the watch-list “system.”

Number one is his massive conflict of interest with the very “system” he established and the center (National Counterterrorism Center) whose role is actually meant to be under his review! Folks, take it from me when I opine that this is exactly like the fox guarding the proverbial henhouse!

I am surprised he didn't pick a CAIR representative.

Par for the coarse with this guy. No pun intended

[homegroan]

But a hole in one! LOL!

[freepersup]

Isn’t Brennan’s firm related to the US State Dept passport breach/sterilization?

Another reason for the poor choice is that the leftist talent pool is very shallow. They can't come up with better appointees because there are no better candidates among the "true believers"
