I can't believe some credit for those stirling items can't be given to Janet Napolitano. She is really a Pivotal Class Individual.

 

[Objective Voice]

The list would be more authentic if it had links to the source articles where many of the allegations can be attributed. Without them, it's just alot of...allegations. Some may be true, some not. But without the source, it's just the rantings of one extremely partician individual.

But hey, it is Obama's presidency. So, when it comes down to it the buck does stop with him. Still, some of the decisions made can reasonable be explained, i.e., cuts in defense spending or focusing on homegrown terrorist cells. Even DefSec Gates said the Pentagon was looking at streamlining their budget to eliminate waste and duplication. I can't see why so many people who claim to want fiscal constrains, stopping wasteful spending or reducing the size of government would be so opposed to trimming the fat within our Defense Department when it's leader himself says we need to cut back in non-essential defense spending. To put it another way, the Iraq War is over; many we no longer need to fund some of the things that were once associated with that war and transfer that funding to the war should have had our nation's undivided attention for the last 7 years, the War on Terror in Afghanistan.

And have we forgotten that the 9/11 hijackers all lived among us and trained for weeks if not months at our own flight schools? If you think that was the first and only time homegrown terrorist have laid in wait and trained in this country, you're being very niave. Read the book, "The Cell," by John Miller and you may just learn something.

So, again, I can understand the reason behind doing some of the things on the list. Other things...maybe not so much. But considering that although there have been atleast 3 terror threats since Obama became President, the fact that ALL have been thrawrted tells me that our intelligence agencies are doing their jobs....probably better than the last two guys!! I mean, 9/11 did find it's origins under former President Clinton but hit its zenith under G. W. Bush. But not one terror attack has gone off as planned under President Obama. :mrgreen:

Accentuate the positives, man!
