Former CIA Head to Investigate US Security Breaches
Voice of America ^ | January 9, 2010

A former director of the CIA has been chosen to uncover how the U.S. failed to prevent the Christmas Day bombing attempt on a passenger plane, and the Fort Hood Army base shooting. National Intelligence Director Dennis Blair said in a statement Friday John McLaughlin is "especially well-qualified" for the task... McLaughlin was the deputy director of the Central Intelligence Agency for four years, including during the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.

Brilliant! More of our tax dollars at play.

Here’s an idea. How about not issuing any more student/diversity/flavor of the week visas to ME’erners. Round up all those who have over stayed their welcome. Don’t fiddle fart about adding names to the list, especially when there’s giant red flags and flashing warning lights. And then make sure you check the list when another country sends you an alert.

Perhaps one clue for failing to prevent future attempts is giving this current terrorist a lawyer and the right to remain silent when he has been very clear that "More attacks are on the way!"

D'oh!!!!

From Canada Free Press: And although the intelligence community did its job, and the fact is, it was Hillary Clinton’s State Department, which sat on the knowledge that a Yemen member of Al Qaeda was about to board a commercial flight for Detroit with a bomb in his underwear, Obama uses the Christmas Bomber opportunity to take another swipe at the CIA – a swipe that Leon Panetta was fast to rebuff.

He’s already reached a conclusion acceptable to the Half White House, otherwise he wouldn’t have been selected. Not that I’m cynical.....
