First she said "the system worked". Now, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano admits the system failed miserably, but repeatedly points out it was a system put in place while George W. Bush was President. White House spokesman Robert Gibbs made similar statements...

Same old same old.

Sounds like an admission that she's done nothing during her time as head of DHS. Epic fail of the Obama admin. Apparently she was for the system before she was against it.

I blame Bush for letting the Democrats force unionized Federal employees at TSA under the direction of Democrat Norm Mineta.

Enough of this crap, Obozo. Man up! You’ve been the President for a year, aided by your handpicked team of imbeciles, of which Napolitano is a stirring example. If you didn’t like the security procedures, you should have changed them. Stop blaming your betters!

If the bush system was so badd, huge gaping holes... and you had a year to fix it... then why did it fail?

I blame liberal-induced, political correctness. The problem with liberals is that, they always want to blame THEIR screw ups on somebody else. The enemy in the war on terror is the Muslims. It’s not gray-haired, card carrying AARP members riding in wheelchairs or using a walker to get around.

Wow, it only took less than 2 days. Must be a record for the blame-Bush crowd.

[lonster]

sometimes it ain’t the system, it’s the idiots who implement it.

[cranked]

Of ocurse, was there any doubt that this DEFUNCT and JOKE of a jack squat administration would do otherwise?!?

[houeto]

You finished yet?

The Obama Line was repeated constantly yesterday....

The (failed) system was put in place years ago (Bush’s fault) and we’ll look into what can be changed (becuause we haven’t spent much time fighting the war on terror, we’ve been too busy socializing healthcare, golfing in paradise, making speeches, relaxing...)

[Texas Jack]

So, let me see if I have this straight. This administration was put in place to fix all of the Bush administration's problems, but instead they have retained them?

Sounds to me as if they are too stupid to figure out what is wrong and fix it.

Could it be that dear Janet has too many DHS agents assigned to spying on Christian fundamentalist? After all, she did say that the Christian right posed a greater threat than Muslim terrorist.

We can be certain other attempts were spoiled by Bush’s plans. Thank you, President Bush. Wish you were on watch still.

The dopes sound like elementary kids, “The dog ate my homework!”

There are only dumb wankers in this administration.

Enough of this “it isn’t my fault” BS! What the heck has Obama been doing for a year?

I think the time has come for someone to pull Obama aside and remind him that this is “his watch” . . . and let him know that if he’s not up for the job, he needs to say so.

We’ll give him a great going away party, wish him well and help him pack.
