the white house's inexplicably bizarre, ostrich-like approach to deadly terror is getting "beleagured" gibbs grilled
more than 75 tuff questions in 2 days
12 queries about the times square terrorist getting on the plane
he made reservations while on the parkway, paid in cash, off for DUBAI
he's been to and from pakistan THIRTEEN TIMES, often with TENS OF THOUSANDS of dollars CASH
he's been on a DHS WATCH LIST since 1999
on tuesday the put out press secty BLAMED the airline
has YOUR leader ever, even in cub scouts, taken to FINGER POINTING and BUCK PASSING as often and as energetically as this pusillanimous president?
it's EMBARRASSING
on wednesday the admin backpedaled---it would CHANGE tsa's requirements for fliers to reference their records, conceding that emirates was IN COMPLIANCE all along
when was shahzad mirandized?
was he hig'd?
gibbs is vague
according to wapo we STILL DON'T KNOW if hig is operational
we all remember when mr brennan testified before jiltin joe lieberman's homeland security after mutallab that the hi value interrogators were NOT yet up and running
the admin "rightly came under fire," asserts the post, for its failure to CONSULT even its OWN security team before rushing the jingle bells jihadist, mutallab, in front of civil venue
why was ksm moved to manhattan then removed, the questions keep coming
will shahzad go before the likes of lance ito in lower manhattan like a common criminal?
or will he face a military tribunal like herman goerring, the fat field marshall?
in the senate, holder's hollow explanations came off to "grouchy" BARBARA MIKULSKI like "chalk on a chalkboard"
"the president of the united states," she personalizes, "ordered significant reforms" after the christmas day bombing
yet TODAY all she sees before her is "dysfunctional"
why did dhs napolitano, "the system worked" wonkette, repeatedly reference times square as a "one off?"
it turns out shahzad "received bomb training in waziristan"
he was "inspired," HE SAYS, by al awlaki, the mad imam from yemen (via new mexico), the same who gave GUIDANCE to the fort hood hitman
had intel DONE ITS JOB after hood it would have stumbled unmistakably on to hasan's hefty exchanges with the yelling yemeni linked as well to mutallab
instead, obama's dod WHITE WASHES and STONE WALLS probes into the pentagon's pc-motivated promotion of the paranoid psychiatrist, thus passively ENABLING the event
lieberman's and collins' SUBPOENA of hasan's emails was characteristically GOAL TENDED by holder who hides
so the incensed senators, centrists, are taking the agitated ag to court to access the assassin's PERSONNEL FILE
ny officials are offended for being FROZEN OUT of headline hunting holder's 1 am presser tuesday
and the next day's ceremony should have gone down NOT in the rfk building in dc but in TIMES SQUARE itself, telegraphing to millions of new yorkers and international tourism that the ENTERTAINMENT CAPITAL OF EARTH was SAFE
credit grabbing amateurs and politicos
and the consequences of all this keystone incompetence:
times square ON FRIDAY was shut down for hours because some unlucky cosmopolitan LOST HIS LUNCH BOX
a few hours earlier "bomb jittery cops" felt compelled to approach on ***** foot a truck cuz it was PARKED on the street
hey, ya never know
the jitters that have folks jumping out of their jackets is NOT confined to wall street
IN TIMES LIKE THESE the lack of leadership leads to palpitations
