During a House hearing this morning, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano criticized the Drudge Report for highlighting stories about the department’s purchases of ammunition and MRAP (Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected) vehicles.

She should do stand up, that was funny.
Almost lifelike compared to Reno.
Very funny to see this old bull questioning anyone else’s credibility. Napolitano and her agency as well as the TSA are monuments to governmental incompetency and largesse.
Yes, the ammo purchases have been completely debunked.
From Breitbart:

I have no idea about the vehicles, but my guess is that was a bunch of nonsense too. Along with the 30,000 drones report that was obviously BS.
“If I might say in my own defense, we just couldn’t believe that anyone would believe those allegations and so let me be clear – absolutely not true,” Napolitano concluded.
I would say Napolitano proves her self to be an idiot, yet again, for uttering this. There are conspiracy nuts that will buy into anything. There are tens of thousands of 9-11 truthers who believe the US government was behind 9-11, there are Sandy Hook nutters who think it didn't really happen or deformed, satanist children are involved, folks that believe fluoridation is a huge plot, people who think jet contrails are destroying the atmosphere, etc. We are in a globalized world where dopey conspiracies can gain ground rapidly, DHS should have shot down these claims sooner.
Excuse me Butch, if you and your minions were doing their jobs protecting us from terrorists Boston would not have happened. The terrorists were on the run alright, right toward us.
LOL! I was thinking the same thing.
These people are as dumb as they look.
She is full of crap. The numbers came from requests for quotation published by Fed Biz Ops https://www.fbo.gov/?s=opportunity&mode=list&tab=list
Anyone can read the requests and see for themselves. You can even sign up for automatic notifications of solicitations for products described by keywords that you select. If DHS requests quotations for 250 million 9mm bullets, it can be assumed that they will eventually select a supplier and place the order.
Napolitano, The Drudge Report - one of them has a huge credibility problem. Napolitano seems, however, to be confused on which of the two is not trusted.
The DHS has about 16 or so of those vehicles nationwide.
What’s up with Obama and all his dyke appointments?
Napolitano, Sotomayer, and Kagen
Fags of a feather . . .
A broken clock with no hands is more credible.
I take that as an endorsement.
“Drudge getting a little too close to home for her?”
You mean, him...I don’t know gender that mutated hobbit is.
Who you gonna believe, Aunt Janet or your lyin eyes?
Solicitation for 250,000,000 40 cal SW ammo:

Why does America look more and more like the Soviet Union each day?
The slide we are on may not end well.
