On Christmas Day, a Nigerian-born terrorist named Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab attempted to blow up a Detroit-bound passenger airplane. Only the bravery of a fellow passenger prevented the catastrophe. President Obama called the terror attempt a "systemic failure" on the part of American national security agencies. In particular, he blamed the CIA for the foul-up.
There is no doubt that the CIA should have done something more to prevent this attack. But, then again, President Obama has been keeping them busy.
With global warming.
Seriously.
According to the New York Times on Jan. 5, just a few days after Obama excoriated the CIA publicly, "The nation's top scientists and spies are collaborating on an effort to use the federal government's intelligence assets -- including spy satellites and other classified sensors -- to assess the hidden complexities of environmental change."

All Global Warming is, is a front for raising taxes. It has nothing to do with the climate or the environment.
The headline is incorrect. For Obama his comrade rats, global warming is national security.
Immigration amnesty trumps national security.
Appeasement trumps national security.
Dismantling our intel community trumps security.
Utilizing intel assets for global warming monitoring trumps national security.
ObamaCare trumps national security.
Surfing trumps national security.
Basketball trumps national security.
Golfing trumps national security.
Galavanting here in there in AF1 trumps national security.
Ongoing political pay-offs, such as TARP, Stimulus, etc. trump national security.
Cap and Trade trumps national security.
If I missed any, forgive me...... =.=
But what trumps everything is vacations, and many, many of them, on the tax payers money.
