WASHINGTON (AP) - The White House on Sunday pushed back aggressively against criticism that national security has been undermined by releasing classified Bush-era interrogation memos over the objections of some former CIA chiefs. "We are absolutely confident that we have the tools necessary to get the information we need to keep this country safe," senior presidential adviser David Axelrod said. "And we don't believe and the president of the United States does not believe that this is a contest between our values and our security. He thinks we can honor both and execute both. And that's what he's going to do."

In your face politics.

The List, ping

The Obama administration has a lot of tools. But why get personal about it?

[Safrguns]

Well, at least the Messiah is fullfilling his promise to have the most “transparent” administration.

The same promise of “safety” i’m sure also applies... as long as your a terrorist on US soil.

[puppypusher]

Yea!I'm so comforted knowing Obama can defend the United States.NOT!

If anything he's doing everything he can to undermine the security of the country and by releasing that classified information to our enemies he's proved it.

Hahahahaha, best one I’ve heard all day.

In his own bizarre twisted logic, Mr. Munch-a-rod is 'right': "There is no need for torture because the Dear Leader doesn't think America is worth defending against Islamic nutjobs.

But does the nation have the tools to protect itself against Resident Obama?

...senior presidential adviser David Axelrod said. "And we don't believe and the president of the United States does not believe that this is a contest between our values and our security. He thinks we can honor both and execute both. And that's what he's going to do."

I guess the secret plan is to have our enemies laugh themselves to death.

...US has tools needed to protect nation...

No leaders with common sense, however.

[John123]

We are absolutely confident that we have the tools necessary to get the information we need to keep this country safe

Uh... teleprompters don't count.

[LibLieSlayer]

When we get hit... and it is just a matter of time.. closing Gitmo and spewing lies like this one, will bring them down. Isn't it a shame we have a President that will allow who knows how many Americans to be slaughtered by his muslim brothers and allies? I hope the American Idol generation has or will learn its lesson!

LOL!

“The Obama administration has a lot of tools.”

Right, all the tools are now in the administration. We know where they are and we don’t have to search for them.

Of course they do. They have lists of all right-wing organizations and their members and with the new information czar they’ll have the ability to learn everything they need to “keep this country safe.”

[girlangler]

ping.

[SeanOGuano]

I have lots of tools in my garage. If I actually spent some time using them I’d be adding a lot of value to my home.

[dr_who]

Sure. But unfortunately, the US is lead by a tool.

are absolutely confident that we have the tools necessary to get the information we need to keep this country safe," senior presidential adviser David Axelrod said.

Well what tools are they? How are you going to use them. Who are you going to use them against? How long will it take? You need to give us dates and deadlines. Did you fart today?

When Bush was in office the lefties wanted to know every tiny detail about everything he was doing. Now it's, "just trust us".

Not in my lifetime.
