Napolitano: Airline Security System 'Did Not Work'

Napolitano: Airline Security System 'Did Not Work'

Commented Dec 28, 2009 at 14:17:01 in Politics

“I thought her comment of "it worked" or something similar was a stupid answer. It worked, how???

The only reason the plane was not blown to smithereens is because the stupid guy couldn't get it to work, otherwise...I guess the system worked. The President might want to take a second look at her.

I've always said thatt the DHS was just another money sucking boondoogle and we can blame both parties for creating it.

After reading Kessler's book on the lack of security with the Secret Service and "Brownie's"good job during Katrina, it might be wise to go back to the FBI and CIA for security.”

“I have feel Napolitano was trying to paint a good picture on a big disaster trying to cover up for her dept. It was so obvious that the sytem did not work and she comes out with a straight face and say it worked. what an insult. I think she is not suited to be DHS secretary.”

“Here we go with the air brushing of history. Before they are done, Bush will be sitting on one of Reagan's wings and Cheney the other, with a harp and the start of a new Trinity. None of the ignorant cable news people will call them on it either.

It's either Clinton's fault or the new guy in town, Obama's. Kind of like the trolls here....Same song, second verse.”

“I'll second that....It has been and is being used to make the minority more powerful than the majority we voted in. Therefore, it doesn't matter what the President's agenda is, it will get watered down and destroyed thanks to this rule.”

“Yes, you are right and I overstated the illegal part. Both sides have used it very judiciously in the past, but nothing like what the Republicans are doing now, to block every single thing.

Thanks, Roger.”

“The filibuster was only to be used in serious undertaking. The Senate did this little darling all on its on. There are no provisions for it in the Constitutions, so it is illegal.”

RogerHWerner replied on Dec 27, 2009 at 17:54:39

“It's not illegal because each body is permitted to establish its own operational protocols. They can change the rules unilaterally with a majority vote.”

“That's what people don't understand that always snarking about the President or wanting him to fail, only weakens our country and gives power to the Republican's obstructionists view of power grabbing. They will never vote for a single thing.”

“You guessed correctly..........It's all Obama's fault because he stopped using the word "terrur", doncha know!!! or probably because he is in his home state for Christmas which happens to be Hawaii instead of clearing all that brush in Texas..........”

“Hi TN60!

Hope you had a great Christmas!

Yep, I'm sure Shrub is clearing brush in Crawford this weekend. There's a stinch coming from the west....”

I wrote in a comment yesterday,,,,would someone please help me understand what the next procedure would be to HCR. No one informed me, but just now, while browsing I found this comment and thought it was worth sharing.

It is a good article and if anyone was like me and having a hard time understanding where we go, now....this is your answer.

Two things struck me with HOPE. Evidently, since the Dems got their 60 votes for closure, it now only requires an up or down vote in both houses.

The other is that no one knows what kind of bargining power the House will have in conference and now is the time for contacting your representatives. The Grandstanding Days are over for the Lieberman and Nelsons and the Finegolds. Now it is up to the conference.

Hope this helps those like me.”

“I knew the trolls would be out in full force on this commentary ?????

You have it backwards, it is the last adm (or whatever you call a bunch of losers) who were the real, honest to gawd, losers and Bush/Cheney/Rice/ Rummie and Wolfie etc were the comedy of errors.

That would be comic if our kids hadn't come home in body bags for their mis-adventure.”
