Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is "surrpised" by the "determination of Al Qaeda".

Tell me this is just a bad dream and this woman really isn't the Secretary of Homeland Security. At this point, I'll even accept someone telling me a lie that she isn't. Is it possible the Janet Napolitano may have been hanging around with Joe Biden one time too many? Last week Ms. Napolitano made a very stupid and clueless comment when she said "the system worked" in regards to Delta flight 523 not being blown up. Since then, she has flip flopped on several occasions trying to "clarify" her comment thus trying to do damage control. Well Janet has stuck her foot in her mouth yet again, surprise surprise One would think that the Secretary of Homeland Security would be very well informed on the enemies facing the homeland right? The old saying goes "know your enemy". Conservatives understand the threat of Islamic Extremism very well. They have a keen understanding of Islamic groups such as Al Qaeda, Islamic Jihad and Hamas. Even some liberals like Joe Lieberman understand the Islamic threat. Apparently the person who is in the position of protecting the homeland doesn't understand the threat and "determination" of an Islamic terrorist group trying to attack this nation. Of course I'm referring to Ms. Janet Napolitano. In a news conference yesterday, a reporter asked Napolitano

Report "What was the most shocking, stunning thing that you found out of the review? And, Secretary, to you, as well"?

Janet Napolitano " I think, following up on that, not just the determination of al Qaeda and al Qaeda Arabian Peninsula, but the tactic of using an individual to foment an attack, as opposed to a large conspiracy or a multi-person conspiracy such as we saw in 9/11, that is something that affects intelligence. It really emphasizes now the renewed importance on how different intelligence is integrated and analyzed, and threat streams are followed through. And, again, it will impact how we continue to review the need to improve airport security around the world.

This was the answer of a person who hasn't done her homework on the threat she is suppose to try and prevent from becoming a reality. If Janet had a clear understanding of Al Qaeda and other extremist groups, she would have realized that these groups are fueled by extremism. They blow themselves up for their cause. If that doesn't spell determination what does? Does Janet think that Al Qaeda is made up of sensible moderate Muslims that are merely misunderstood? Radical Islam is the core foundation of Al Qaeda. Radical Islam has been at war with "the infidels" for hundreds of years. This isn't some overnight thing. Obama has had no problem throwing people who have become liabilities under the bus, so why should Janet Napolitano be an exception to the rule? She is out of her league for the position that she holds. God forbid an Islamic nutcase is successful in carrying out another attack on the mainland, but I have no doubt Janet Napolitano will just come out and say "I was shocked by their determination and that a terrorist attack happened".

I agree with your analysis completely. That gal KNOWS what she's doing. Let 'em think she's dumb, she don't care. She is staying focused on the bidness at hand with straight-forward, no nonsense, down to earth approach, and calling it what it is on every issue. She ain't playin'.

She knows exactly what she's doing, and because the haters can't seem to figure that out, they have to grasp at straws to try and smear her any possible way they can.

Go, Sarah, GO!
