While US President Barack Obama vacations in Hawaii, the White House is scrambling to explain why terrorism policies put into place by the Bush administration are being largely ignored by the Obama administration.
According to ABC News:
“Brian Jenkins, who studies terrorism for the Rand Corporation, says there were more terror incidents (12), including thwarted plots, on U.S. soil in 2009 than in any year since 2001. The jihadists don’t seem to like Americans any better because we’re closing down Guantanamo.”
My regular readers will recall that Sandrarose.com predicted this would happen when US president Barack Obama revealed his true colors after taking office. It was clear form the beginning that Obama sympathized with Muslim terrorists (notice I use those words together and not separately?).
When Obama took office in January, he announced plans to close the prison camp at Guantanamo Bay Cuba because he was concerned that the civil rights of those murderous terrorists were being violated.
He also drafted a love letter to the Muslim leader of Iran, and gave his first major interview as president — not to a U.S. news network — but to a Muslim network based in Saudi Arabia. All the while denying he was Muslim.
Obama’s primary mission seemed to be to remake the image of Muslim terrorists in the eyes of Americans. The Obama administration even laughably extended invitations to Iranian Diplomats to enjoy hot dogs and burgers on 4th of July (the administration later rescinded the invites).
Yet none of this raised red flags amongst enthusiastic Kool Aid drinkers. But now that the lives of Americans are being threatened on an ever increasing basis, Kool Aid drinkers are sitting up and taking notice.
The question being asked is why didn’t the (Obama) state department take into account a father’s warning that his son might be a danger to the U.S.? We’re not talking any ordinary father here, we’re talking about a former official with the Nigerian government!
The state department employee who took the father’s call, added the son’s name to a terror watch list. Yet Northwest Airlines bombing suspect Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was approved for a travel VISA to the U.S. anyway.
Still, Obama’s Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told the world media “the system worked.”
According to The Washington Post, “White House officials struggled to explain the complicated system of centralized terrorist data and watch lists, stressing that they were put in place years ago by the Bush administration.”
So because the checks and balances system was put in place by the Bush administration, the soft Obama administration has virtually ignored them?
blah..blah…blah…blah..blah…
Actually, Janet Napolitano said the system failed and that her words in the previous statement had been taken out of context. How is this the president’s fault? Was the guy who got sick with food poisononing on another flight to Detroit also a part of the President’s diabolical plan to give Americans the runs?

Since most if not all terror attempts this year have been stopped (thwarted-from quote) I’d say his system is working

@ missy
SANDRA FOR PRESIDENT IN 2012!!!!! Since she know every damn thing…smh
First off that dude received a Visa in 2008. Obama wasn’t even in office yet. So that is a Bush era mistake so he must have not been using his own list.
Also this dude got through the airport in Amsterdam, so it it is a problem with the Dutch airport not U.S.
all the signs are pointing to the fact that obama will most likely be a one term presdient aka failure but i`m sure when that happends his groupies will blame it on racism..never mind that the fact that even the black congressional caucus dont wont to mess with him anymore…the guy is clearly imcompetent!
Umar’s father notified the US on Nov. 19, 2009 that Umar was a threat. The state department did not cross check Umar’s name with their paperwork to see if he had a Visa. Such a search would have taken seconds by computer. Obama has to take the blame for this because all these terrorist acts have taken place on his watch. And we all know how soft he is on terrorists.

Is he ignoring Bush’s watch list?
AS HE SHOULD…..
His dad may have notified the Embassy 6 weeks ago but he didn’t have any substantial information. That means I could just go to the an embassy and say “So and So may be doing something but I am not sure what it is” and bam that person should be on a No Fly list. They have 550,000 people on that list. I would like to know how they got on there, is it random, is it because of what? His Dad didn’t know any specifics he just said that he maybe radical but what does that proof. Do you want to be guilty first and have to proof your innocence, thats not how we suppose operate. You suppose to be innocent until proven gulity.
He should have NEVER been able to get on that plane and the plane originated in Amsterdam, so they should be held accountable first.
Anyway, maybe we should talk about the past 8 years, under the Bush Admin, and how the country just went to sh!t. The economy faltered under Bush, everything else too. The Towers came down under Bush, Gas prices went up under Bush, Katrina happened under Bush, shall we go on?

“ABE LINCOLN’S SEER PREDICTED ELECTION OF BLACK PRESIDENT IN 1864”
In 1864, President Abraham Lincoln recorded a visit by Nettie Colburn Maynard, a well-known Washington psychic who had been counseling the president’s wife, Mary.
Maynard prophesied victory for the North in the Civil War and told Lincoln that he would face a life-and-death crisis the following year. Both prophecies came true. The North won the Civil War and Lincoln was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth on April 15, 1865.
Maynard went on to say that one of the legacies of the Civil War would be that the United States would elect a black president in the year 2008. That also came true.
Maynard then made the following predictions for the black president elect:
She said that the administration would be plagued by a costly war just as Lincoln’s had been. She also predicted that American troops would be tied down in a war until 2014. When the troops returned home, twenty years of uninterrupted peace would follow.
