Obama issues press release on terrorism

... and as usual says, essentially, nothing. Instead of reviewing who in his government did nothing, he might want to examine his own bad attitude toward the "war on terror", take his eye off the Nobel Peace Prize for a minute, and get down to the business of keeping his people safe.

I'll be writing more on this travesty of an administration in Sunday's Review-Journal. If you care about the safety of Americans, your readership will be appreciated.

In the meanwhile, if you want to read something substantive, take a look at this blog item from one of the passengers on th Detroit flight. What are the Obama folks trying to hide?

Statement from the President on preliminary assessments from reviews ordered on the Christmas Day incident

This morning, I spoke with John Brennan about preliminary assessments from the ongoing consultations I have ordered into the human and systemic failures that occurred leading up to the attempted act of terrorism on Christmas Day and about our government-wide efforts at continued vigilance on homeland security and counterterrorism efforts. In a separate call, I spoke with Sec. Napolitano to receive an update on both the Department of Homeland Security review of detection capabilities and the enhanced security measures in place since the Christmas Day incident.

I anticipate receiving assessments from several agencies this evening and will review those tonight and over the course of the weekend.  On Tuesday, in Washington, I will meet personally with relevant agency heads to discuss our ongoing reviews as well as security enhancements and intelligence-sharing improvements in our homeland security and counterterrorism operations. 

NOTE: John Brennan is Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism.
