Political Correctness Was the Systemic Failure

spartanNo jokes now, folks.  It’s zero flak time.

Time to cut to the chase when talking about our security.  When it comes to terrorism and stopping it, the biggest systemic failure is political correctness.  I’m calling a spade a spade today because, oh, people might die otherwise.

It won’t matter how well, or how much, we can do to stop terrorism.  If someone is scared to act because they believe they’ll get sued, or called a racist, or accused of racial profiling, they won’t act.  No action, no security.  No security, and maybe the next time someone tries to blow up a plane with his underwear, they won’t fail.

I don’t care which party you’re from, though I see this most from the Democrats and those special interests in their sphere, like the ACLU.  If you’re politically correct, you’re part of the problem.  Put real security (not imitation security-flavored irritation) first, even if you have to start disbarring the lawyers or disbanding organizations that help cause it.  Then, and only then, will we stop seeing “systemic failure”.

The Obama Vacation Initiative

tanningFolks, show some pity.  Obama is tired.  Sincerely, the man needs a vacation.

And frankly, we need him on vacation too.

After…

  1. The non-stimulus stimulus
  2. His impending health care legislation disaster
  3. Creating the Socialist Motor twins GM and Chrysler, who never need bother requesting my business ever again
  4. Spending money we don’t have
  5. Botching the Olympics
  6. Winning the Nobel Peace Prize for absolutely nothing
  7. Attending the Copenhagen global warming summit in the snow
  8. Janet Napolitano.  Enough said.
  9. And calling all of his critics racists when his flaks aren’t doing it for him…

…the man must be absolutely exhausted.  I know I’m tired of him.  So its time we on the right stepped up and created the Obama Vacation Initiative.

Show some compassion and think of how happy it would make him if he would just stop being the President all the way through 2013.  He wouldn’t have to do anything at all but enjoy the sun and sand in Hawaii.  Even with the drooling journalist groupies and shirtless photos, it would be so much better than having him around.

It’s not like his job performance would suffer in his absence.

So call your Congressman and Senator today.  Tell them to appropriate money for the Obama Vacation fund, and send him on his way.  Under guard if they must.  I’m sure the man could use the rest.

Time to Pitch In for Scott Brown

dive_elephantRedState sums this one up nicely.

Scott Brown is running for Senate in Massachusetts.  The special election in which he’s running to replace Ted Kennedy is next month.  While he may be a long shot, he’s still a shot at getting a 41st Republican Senator elected to Washington, and the stakes couldn’t be higher.

Plus, the leadership just threw him under the bus.  Given the quality and thinking of those running the national Republican committees, that means he’s probably a decent candidate.  They would have incinerated a couple million on him otherwise.

Spread the word.  Blog about it.  Make a donation.  Post his video:

Give Obama a reason to get drunk for the new year.  Scott Brown for Senate.

The System Worked Great…Until It Didn’t

airplaneJanet Napolitano.  Talk of the blogosphere today.  A Department of Homeland Security Secretary to inspire confidence…in the enemy.

Here’s a short summary, since it’s been discussed to death in other places.  Someone tried to blow up a Detroit flight using explosive in his underwear.  The only reason he didn’t succeed was due to a brave passenger and a faulty detonator.  In other words, dumb luck.

According to Janet Napolitano, the  bombing was stopped because the system worked.  And today, she said it failed miserably.  Aren’t you glad this woman is watching out for you?  Or do you get the sinking feeling that someday, you’re going to see a news report like this…

An airline spokemen has said that the TSA’s new random underwear inspection policy has hurt the airline industry.

“In these rough times, we’re finding it hard to stay afloat.  The TSA is not helping matters any with its new random underwear inspection policy.”

The Department of Homeland Security defends the decision to put this policy in place.  “We believe that the security of the American people depends upon our ability to react to the ever-changing terrorist threat.  No avenue of attack can be overlooked.”

But critics charge that the policy only irritates passengers, who now use other means of transit to get where they want to go in increasing numbers.  Complaints of corruption and threats of lawsuits due to privacy issues have risen dramatically in the seven months this policy has been in effect.

Furthermore, a high profile incident involving a TSA guard being beaten by an umbrella-wielding grandmother of six has put more pressure on the administration to amend this latest security policy.

No, this report is not remotely real.  Yet.
