You lying bastards. This is the best you can come up with two weeks later?

I've met low-end hookers with more honesty that you collectively have.

Jihadis are more honest than you! You bastards suck sh*t.

Please feel free to stop consuming the oxygen of decent Americans.

Maybe they thought it would save money on bull dozers and create jobs if it hit Detroit.

This actually is even worse for the dims. Admitting they KNEW but still couldn’t make a decision to do anything. The whole system has PC paralysis.

They also could be fudging the terror reason for wanting the secondary inspection in Detroit. More likely it was just a standard secondary inspection because he is Nigerian/looking for drugs/cash, etc. I would guess a large percentage of young Nigerians traveling alone get a secondary!

This just keeps getting better and better (in a train wreck sort of way). The Obamatrons are obviously just shooting in any old direction, hoping they finally hit a target — any target.

It disappeared as soon as I posted my theory about the device being inert to begin with.

Yeah your post was one of the last things I saw...

There was some question about the link for the thread, but it was repeatedly explained the story was breaking on radio KFI LA, then multiple links were provided for the LA Times article.

Yet the thread, for unknown reasons, just completely disappeared...

I too found that a little odd.

“The system worked.”
and then
“The system failed in a potentially disastrous way.”
and now
“U.S. border security officials learned of intelligence about the alleged extremist links of the suspect in the Christmas Day airline bombing attempt as he was en route to Detroit and had decided to question him when he landed”

What a load of BS. Does the goobermit think we are all really such morons?

It is all connected. US born (New Mexico) and bred imam/mullah islamicist Awlaki is at the center of all this. Another Yemeni acolyte of Awlaki, Abdullah Hasan Tali al-Asiri, posing as a double agent willing to defect and give intel on Yemen Al Queda to the Saudis, while wearing an underwear bomb, tries to blow up Saudi prince and intelligence chief Mohammed bin Nayef in August. Then US joins in Saudi effort to drive Al Queda in Yemen out of business. Ft Hood shooter Hasan coached by Awlaki on how to attack US soldiers on base, murders 14 in November. US airstrike targeting Awlaki in Yemen Dec 24, cruise missile in a tent effort - they missed him. Then CIA agents are murdered in bombing by suicide double agent from Al Queda. And then, Nigerian gonad bomber hops on a plane with no passport, and the Homeland Security figures out we have an issue with the Nigerian while he is airborne? yeah right. Are we truly expected to believe these are all unconnected events by lone actors?

The Whte house’s homeland security czar John Brennan personally investigated the Saudi Prince assassination attempt on site. Same czar is giving a plea bargain to the Nigerian. What’s up with that?

And, now the Nigerian terrorist guy who attacked US innocent civilians in a plane flying over US territory in attempted mass murder with his jock strap bomb is getting a plea-bargain in civil courts instead of being shot, drawn, quartered, and beheaded as he should be.

How could they not know about the Nigerian guy? His own father, banker executive, contacted the US embassy to warn about the terrorist. He was on a US terrorist list. He has been to Yemen. He had no business coming to the US - -but had already visited Houston last year - who and why? Wh gave this dude a visa?

The Muslim Kenyan Resident is either deluded and in denial about the whole thing, or else is enabling it intentionally.

And now, he orders an air marshall on every single US bound flight. I would rather have a Flying Dutchman.

And, it takes 2 weeks after golf and shaved ice and movies and whatever arm twisting on healthcare to admit with a lame indication that we knew about the guy all along.....

Interesting. The normal flight path for this flight would take them directly over Selfridge Air Force Base in Michigan. You would have thought they might scramble a few jets to escort that plane.
