Guess we know who’s missing her head . . .
It’s just located in the usual anatomical location for a right-wing politician.
from Rectal-Cranial Inversion?
And, I’m now thinking I should have not added the “right-wing” qualifier. Newly minted Blue Dog Betsy Markey seems to be in a similar position. But why should she worry – she has a job.
was that Janet Napolitano moved up to the cabinet and Brewer became Governor of Arizona. An unfortunate consequence of valuing talent at the national level.
(blush)
Napolitano has no business at DHS. She’s completely incompetent.
We’ve been waiting for 8 years and are now on our second administration to deal with this problem. It appears there’s been plenty of incompetence to go around for nearly a decade.
“The system worked.”
?!?!?!
for sheer volume and variety, Brewer is tough to beat, both in terms of volume and variety, on the spewing of nonsense. Look out Chicken Lady! Look out Jane Norton. Look over your shoulder Sarah Palin. Napolitano wouldn’t even make the quarter finals.
And incidentally, we’re doing a lot better with law enforcement vs terror than with invasions, occupations, corrupt, incompetent puppet governments and the like vs terror. Whatever safety and security we have never had a thing to do with dying in Iraq and stopped having anything to do with dying in Afghanistan along time ago.
” . . . we’re doing a lot better with law enforcement vs terror than with invasions, occupations, corrupt, incompetent puppet governments and the like vs terror.

It has to do with incompetent terrorists.
The underpants bomber ignited a bomb that could have taken down the plane.
The Times Square bomber drove his SUV into position and tried to detonate.
Thank God we’re getting AQ’s dumbshits, because the system most certainly did not work. We’re not going to be lucky forever. Just ask some of the families at Ft. Hood, right?
OK, so let’s recap…
GAO calls for the plan in 2002.
Bush administration does nothing.
Obama administration starts plan in early 2010, expect to complete it in late 2010.
When the plan isn’t complete in mid-2010, Republicans play it for politics.
LB, it reflects poorly when you selectively post this kind of garbage.
Or at least any history that might be related to problems today began then. It is really that simple.
We have a winner!!
Now tell the President that – he still thinks that anything bad going on is the fault of W.
I think that’s real leadership!
🙂
Who was president again on 9/11?
Or is the ‘history started on the current watch’ theme only applicable to Dem presidents that follow failed R presidents?
Otherwise it would contradict the R’s sense of presidential history, to whit: Robust economy under Clinton was because of Reagan…nation’s worse terrorist attack under W was because of Clinton, etc.
So which is it? (You don’t really need to answer LB, intellectual honesty, consistency or fair portrayal of history has none ever been conservative strong points…)
I think 9/11 was a unique event in history. We’d never seen anything so brutal in our modern era, IMO, so I don’t hold Clinton accountable for not doing more when he could have to stop Bin Laden, just as Bush couldn’t have conceived the destruction that was coming.
How’s that?
And the transition team tried to tell the Bush team this would be their biggest security challenge.
“Yeah, whatever.”
Well documented fact.
Could have killed him or taken him prisoner on a couple of occasions.
Nobody knew the scope of the attacks that were coming.
Ollie North told Congress that during Iran-Contra.
http://www.snopes.com/rumors/n…
North never brought up Osama’s name during the Iran-Contra hearings. North mentioned Abu Nidal.
Good catch – sorry I missed that one.
Although I maintain that 9/11 was such a cathartic event for Americans, that past lapses (by both Bush and Clinton) can be forgiven, but new ones cannot.
It was only while researching what year North allegedly said it that I discovered that he, in fact, didn’t.
I’m not a know-it-all, by any stretch. I do like finding things out, though.
Thanks. Honestly.
True, LB. There wasn’t a coloring book edition of this memo: Bin Laden Determined To Strike in US (August 2001)
Or how to deal with it: “A Comprehensive Strategy to Fight Al-Qaeda” (January 2001)
What a crock of shit.
Vacation
This is from http://twitter.com/westwingreport
And when they say ‘part’ they can mean a very small part… like getting there late afternoon or up to late evening!
From the article link above:
Why bother?
the financial meltdown occurred under the same President?!! Shocked, I’m shocked. He really had bad luck, didn’t he.
He is looks rusty and not used to having his stuff fact checked. I’m suspecting that he has been hanging out on the right wing blogs where everything that is posted that is negative about the Obama Adminisration is assumed to be true.
Jon Stewart had a great take down this week on how Fox News constantly blamed Clinton throughout the Bush years but now Obama owns every problem. It was priceless.
LB just selectively lifted the one paragraph in a 3-paragraph article that made his point, while ignoring the 2 paragraphs that refute it. It’s the sort of thing he accuses Pols of doing all the time.
But, I guess good for the goose is good for the gander, eh?
DHS didn’t show for the meeting, and it even made RINO Collins mad.
Napolitano is in way over her head.
BFD
How does that change this story?:
GAO calls for the plan in 2002.
Bush administration does nothing.
Obama administration starts plan in early 2010, expect to complete it in late 2010.
When the plan isn’t complete in mid-2010, Republicans play it for politics.
Collins could have picked up the phone and learned that much. And she could have called for hearings at any time when Bush was President. Why now?
Was there a competent Secretary of Homeland Security somewhere in the historical record?
How is Napolitano bad compared to what has been?
I guess what I am saying is, “Your point?”
Gov. Jan Brewer wants to believe all those things.
After all, her dad didn’t die fighting the Nazis in order for our deserts to become littered with beheaded drug mules.
Sometimes these sig lines just write themselves.
is the beheading for getting the drugs out or what?
Gov. Brewer thinks the majority of Mexicans are intergenerational Satanists and that’s just what they do.
Fewer heads, fewer brains to think about her wisdom.
