What a collection of fools.
God help us all.
Man, I wish I had a government gig...raises every year, virtually impossible to get fired, great health plan, terrific retirement...and apparently they close the shop for Christmas!
While the comments on the CBS site are few, they are not favorable to the One. The tide cannot turn fast enough.
If the sheeple had any idea of what the Washingtonians were up to, there would be hell to pay.
Fortunately for the leftists, the propagandists in the press are providing cover.

So who is going to ask the question?
Why was everyone avoiding DC that week?
I am not buying the fact that we narrowly escape another terrorist attack and NO ONE returned to DC?????
What are they not telling us?
Was DC a target?
Did we dodge a bigger bullet?
Not a problem because Obama & Co. are democrats. President Bush was critcized every time he went to his own home in Texas. That’s different.
Eager young recruit, a father to be and man in charge among CIA dead ( Afghanistan bombing )
And in California, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, had over ten agents out in force on XMAS Day writting citations to homeowners for lighting their fireplaces on a no-burn day.
NOTHING gets between an APPARATCHIK and a VACATION.
This is not a big deal unless you are a republican.
None of those people did anything. By the time they heard about the problem, it had been dealt with, by a passenger.
Now CBS wants to make it a victory for long distance micro-management.
Name the 4 most powerful weapons Obummer`s administration has used against terrorists on US soil:
Golf, Skiiing, Monterey Jack and Cable Cars
0 responded more quickly to his friends’ son’s beach bobo than he did the panty bomber.
In all honesty, the deputy heads of these alphabet agencies who remain at their posts over the holidays are more than capable of doing what needs to be done. The bosses all have secure comms, the President has the Football, and do we really want the terrs to know how to get all the VIPs back into DC on short notice? Now if the attack had succeeded, or the President was going to waterboard the terr himself, then it might be different.
I dislike this Obama administration as much or more than anyone else. However, I find it to be really silly for the news media and bloggers to be throwing rocks at them for not rushing back to their offices from their Christmas vacations because of the crotch bomber that failed in his terriorist attempt.
The One, his handlers and his department heads were able to communicate between each other and with their subordinates. Being physically in D.C. or not had no bearing on decisions that could have been and were made.
Jumping on the fact that so many were not in D.C. is just so much BS, like the MSM used to do everytime GW Bush would go to the ranch in Texas and claim he was “on vacation”; while he was always in contact with administration personnel throughout the world and working on US business probably more hours than he spent cutting brush.
That’s why Obamo wouldn’t blame anyone....they wasn’t anyone Home....vacated their posts is an understatement.
No excuse, they signed on to the job and it doesn’t mean vacation time is your time when the nations at risk. They should have all been brought back to their watch....most of all BO.
Yet Bush was criticized incessantly and mercilessly by the media and the talking heads for immediately flying over New Orleans after Katrina (after begging the mayor and the governor - neither of whom listened to him - to order mandatory evacuation and call the Nat’l Guard forward) and the levees broke (levees adminstered and run by the rats for years and who did NOTHING about fixing them because of the controlling rats siphoning off of levee repair funds to corrupt self-enrichment scams) instead of landing at the airport, which would have shut down the airport for hours and backed up aid, personnel and supplies from getting in.
I’m so sick of this I really can’t take much more.
