My dog was also stunned to learn that since I shouted at the tv when I heard it. Also- I had missed this before- Mutallab’s father went THREE separate times to the embassy. So it was no small concern to him- he took it upon himself to vist us 3 times.

I would not defend the CIA to teach them a lesson. When Rumsfeld planned to consolidate intel gathering function to DIA in lieu of CIA, the CIA did not hesitate to leak DoD mistakes and op failures to the press to undermind Rumsfeld and military to defend their turf while our forces were in Iraq. The Dems and MSM savaged GWB with the leaks. Remember Valerie Flame and her husband who acted on behalf of the CIA by verbally reporting one thing to the CIA after his trip to Chad and writing an oped for the NY Times reporting total opposite. That oped did damage to the US credibility internationally and hurt GWB domesticly and gave ammo for the anti war left.
The CIA leaked this info to get back at Obama who planned to review CIA participation in torture and if necessary prosecute the agents for doing it. Let the CIA and Obama savage each other. If the GOP is wise, sit out of this fight and let both kill each other. They both (CIA and Obama) deserve each other.

Obozo doesn’t have a brain. He’s a puppet, with Emmanuel and Axlerod as the ventriloquists.

I heard Pat Cadell on Levin’s show say this is Bowrama’s Katrina.

I couldn't agree more. There's something about how all this came down that has me knowing...the media, I think possibly even the congress, is no longer going to follow this guy.

Napalatano did and she will be forever labeled an idiot and a fool.

Hang in there cause this is the final straw in so very many ways.

I want to know how he was allowed to get that particular seat

Yes. And I want to know why ANY person on a terrorist watch list isn't stopped, frisked and interviewed. I want Obama himself to answer that question.

You're wrong! Haven't you heard, John Kerry has submitted a request to go to Iran?

Oh, that really helps! Maybe he'll bore them to death.

Expect Leon to throw Obama under the bus. In fact, this is EXACTLY what just happened.

The CIA’s responsibility is to produce the intelligence, which they did. In addition, they met with their sister agencies so that EVERYBODY knew about this particular whack-job.

He ended up on the list, just not the No Fly list, and that’s Goggle-Eyes job (Napolitano). Man she creeps me out every time I look at her. If she only had one eye, she’d look like Bob from Monsters vs. Aliens.

“So ? just like the Ft. Hood terrorist, so too, this administration knew about this underwear bomber and did nothing about it...”

This is Treson or at least gross negligence dut to Nieve Liberalism , and should result in the prsident O impeachment...he selected the Security People in his Admin...and it is his Policy they are implementing...his head must roll...if Iran is allowed to go Nuke this man alone is responsible for our safety as a nation!

Wish I could believe that this and Ft. Hood are the most serious terrorist incidents we’ll see on our home soil under Obama, but I suspect they’ll be all but forgotten by the time he’s done.

The lesbian bull dyke Napolitano and her filthy marxist comrades and the muzzie son of a whore POTUS need to be put on record on the profiling question.

That is the political debate that needs to happen, immediate institution of the same profiling techniques used by EL AL, for or against.

I have no doubt on which side of the question the red SOB’s in charge of homeland security will come down.

"I also believe we will see attacks on NYE, that is why he has placed the limp deadline of Thursday."

NYE is a blue moon day. It is the second full moon this month. Not that this may mean anything but anything can happen. The lunatics may come out that day moreso than any other NYE.

Chris Wallace (filling in for Bret Baier)just reported that Fox News confirms that the CIA was tracking Northwest Airlines flight 253 bommber Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab since August. He did not say more than that.

No he didn't, but Fred added there may be more info. coming out within the next few days, which prompted today's "systemic failure" speech. It's obvious he's so out of touch with the pulse of this nation if he believes do-overs is all it takes to appease us.
