Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told reporters today that concentrating terrorist screening efforts on Muslim men under age 35 is “not good logic.”
Listen and weep for your country.
Screening Muslim men under 35 is not good logic.
But groping grandma, 6 year-old girls and babies… Now that’s good logic." In addition to the above comments and video, Loft says:
Napolitano must have missed this report in December of last year… In the last 24 months 126 people have been indicted on terrorist-related charges in the United States. All of them were Muslim.
Me: How does a person like Napolitano get appointed to a position of such responsibility? It's plumb scary. We have good reason to question whether the government is on the side of the people or not.
Unbelievable. I wish I knew how to put this video on my blog, but it's (not yet) on YouTube. The incident took place in Grand Rapids and is reported on WCCM13-TV. You've GOT TO SEE THIS VIDEO. Does this young woman look like a terrorist to you? All the indications are there, right? (For my previous post on airport security click here.)
Charles Krauthammer nails it:
...everyone knows that the entire apparatus of the security line is a national homage to political correctness. Nowhere do more people meekly acquiesce to more useless inconvenience and needless indignity for less purpose. Wizened seniors strain to untie their shoes; beltless salesmen struggle comically to hold up their pants; 3-year-olds scream while being searched insanely for explosives - when everyone, everyone, knows that none of these people is a threat to anyone.
The ultimate idiocy is the full-body screening of the pilot. The pilot doesn't need a bomb or box cutter to bring down a plane. All he has to do is drive it into the water . . .

Me: It's beyond weird. It's ridiculous and disgusting. I have no desire to fly on an airplane. Are buses and train stations next? Then shopping malls? Football stadiums?

You’ve got to be kidding? Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is considering giving exemptions to Muslim women at airports.
Isn’t that the reason that we have these intrusive groin checks in the first place?… Because of Muslim bombers?
Gee… It’s not like we’ve ever heard about a terrorist hiding under a burka before. Jailed cleric Maulana Abdul Aziz, one of two brothers who ran Islamabad’s radical Red Mosque, was caught fleeing the violence at his mosque dressed in a burka. This was after he told his students to sacrifice themselves. At least 100 people died, mostly students, when security forces stormed the mosque in a bid to end the siege and flush out pro-Taliban militants from the complex.
Update #2
Washington Times editorial - "Big Sister's Police State"
A slimmed Dick Cheney took a swipe at Barack Obama today at the groundbreaking ceremony of the Bush Library:
“This may be the only shovel ready project in America.”
CBS has more on Cheney’s speech today.
At groundbreaking ceremony in Dallas for the George W. Bush Presidential Center today, former Vice President Dick Cheney said “history is beginning to come around” to a more positive view of former President George W. Bush…
…He spoke admiringly of Mr. Bush’s actions in the wake of the Sept. 11th attacks, telling the former president that “because you were determined to throw back the enemy, we did not suffer another 9/11 or something even worse.”
Cheney, who (unlike Mr. Bush) has been a vocal critic of President Obama, also took a shot at the current administration. Speaking of his expectation that construction would move quickly on the presidential center following the groundbreaking, Cheney quipped that “this may be the only shovel ready project in America.” The reference was to the Obama-supported stimulus package that Republicans have criticized as ineffective.
It must really hurt those democrats to know that Cheney’s right.

GOP Leader John Boehner filed an amicus brief today challenging the constitutionality of Obamacare.
The Note reported:
Speaker-in-waiting John Boehner, R-Ohio, filed an amicus brief Tuesday challenging the constitutionality of the individual mandate in the health care law passed by Democrats earlier this year.
“ObamaCare is a job-killer, and our economy simply cannot afford this unprecedented, unconstitutional power grab by the federal government,” Boehner stated Tuesday evening. “That is why Republicans will continue standing with the American people and fighting to repeal ObamaCare and replace it with better solutions put forth in the Pledge to America to lower health care costs and protect American jobs.”
Boehner’s amicus brief was filed in support of a lawsuit brought by 20 state attorneys general and the National Federation of Independent Businesses (NFIB), the nation’s largest small business association. The brief seeks to overturn what Boehner says is a “government takeover of health care that is costing jobs, increasing costs, and jeopardizing coverage for millions of Americans.”
“I’m proud to join these states and the NFIB in their ongoing effort to overturn this job-killing health care law and protect American workers from its devastating impact.” Boehner said.
In the brief, Boehner says that the Obama Administration has distorted the Constitution to increase congressional power, which in turn compromises the integrity of the legislative process, and undermines accountability to the American people.
At least 26 states, a majority, are expected to join the suit against Obamacare.

Just think… Only 6 more years of listening to this horrid RINO attacking conservatives and conservative causes. That ought to be a loads of fun.
Today bitter Senator Lisa Murkowski blamed Senator Jim DeMint for Republicans losing the majority.
The Politico reported:
After ripping Sarah Palin, Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski isn’t mincing words about another one of her high-profile GOP critics: South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint.
“I think some of the Republicans in the Congress feel pretty strongly that he and his actions potentially cost us the majority by encouraging candidates that ended up not being electable,” Murkowski told POLITICO outside her Senate office. “And I think Delaware is a pretty good example of that, and I think there’re some folks that feel that DeMint’s actions didn’t necessarily help the Republican majority.”
Murkowski suggested the South Carolina conservative and favorite of the tea party seemed more interested in bolstering his own political standing rather than that of the Republican Party.
“So the real question is, what’s his desire?” she said. “Does he want to help the Republican majority, or is he on his own agenda, his own initiative?”
Did she actually just question Jim DeMint’s agenda? She is god-awful… Absolutely awful.
