  1. I agree, Legion. it’s no longer about Bush or Clinton, or reagan. These Democrats always bring up Bush and reagan but fail to mention the crap that Clinton wrought on us.

    The buck stops here now means Obama.

    BTW, here’s janet napolitano’s background….

    SHe was Attornet general and then governor of Arizona. THAT’S IT. No further qualifications.

    For Christ sake, this is ridiculous.

  2. “I’m a modern woman and all, but I think a dude should buy the drinks, no matter what. Who pays on a first date among the gay folk?”

    OK, next time I’ll follow you and lurk, and we’ll come up with a signal if you need me to crash your date. I totally agree with you on the drinks. I was out with this really hot woman last night, and I insisted on buying. I also believe in holding open doors (or pushing the revolving door as the case may be) for a woman.

  3. I’m much mor pragmatic than that- political correctness is a catch-all for anyone who feels like not dealing with real details. But let’s call it like it is- the Bush administration did a half ass job of security. Not well thought out, not really effective- more about saber-rattling than building a good policy. Yes, well- he’s gone- but anyone who wishes to rip Obama on antiterrorism is looking at the wrong person to blame. And you also err in thinking that we will always catch every terrorist- not while humans man checkpoints. No system will be perfect- that’s reality.

    On the other hand, the Bush administration caved on putting in the new technology full body scanners because people thought they were too invasive. Had Bush had real guts he would have said, tough. We’re protecting you from terrorists. Never happened.

    Israel asks the same questions of everyone. What Hikind wants is “ethnic” profiling- by group. There’s a difference. (you can refer to DWB in NJ for background information).

    And now I will give poor DH a break and let you macho guys talk and mingle amongst yourselves 🙂
