The many of us knew it would be just a matter of time before the policies of the Obama administration would be lax enough to allow another terrorist attack, Number Two and counting. A one-way ticket Paid in cash, like the 911 Hijackers, was a definite Red Flag that this guy didn't intend to land or go back to Nigeria.

Mr. Obama has not been proactive on Terrorism, and seems adamant about passing Health care and taxing everyone to the hilt to pay for it, and then taxing us again on gas and electricity under the Cap and Trade Bill. A Terrorist Attack is farther down the list. Hes off in Hawaii on vacation and doesn't want to jump to any conclusions about a terrorist attack, until we have read this little devil ( Abdulmutallab his miranda rights and given him first class medical care. ) The poor guy was misguided and obviously was experimenting with blowing up an airliner with a new substance, not totally tested yet. And Oh by the Way, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was from a wealthy family! No poverty, or lack of education here as implied to Maj. Nidal Hassan's profile, the Ft. Hood Shooter.

This administration has tried to tie the hands of the CIA and the FBI by demeaning their actions. The CIA feels as if Obama and the Congress have betrayed them. (Even though members of Congress were briefed on the techniques, and some asked why the CIA was not doing even more, members such as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi claim that they had no clue about the information they received. ) (you want to talk in the Dark Here about Terrorism!) Even Mutallab Alhaji the Father had enough conscience to report his own son. This is a muslim, who is aware that killing innocent people is not holy, but evil.

Obama's message to the Intelligence Community was clear to the CIA: Even if the Country 's elected Leaders approve techniques close to the Edge, You Take Your Career In Your Hands If you Use Them.

Demeaning the organizations that investigate terrorism and keep us safe, is allowing Jihadists to evade our system! I believe many people are also being schooled on What to do to take down a Terrorist should he be on board your aircraft. This is no kidding, all Americans are getting geared up to help the Air Marshalls!!!!!!!
