When I worked in the White House, I was told it was the big leagues. Zero defects was the rule. It was like the National Football League and you had to perform at the very top level or you were gone.Yes, he can fire Ed Rollins, too, for being an idiot. Rollins even admits that firing Napolitano will not improve the situation, but it'll make Obama look better after the unaccountable Bush Administration. Yeah, and who is he going to get to replace her that the Senate GOP won't filibuster, block, delay or put a hold on? We still don't have a TSA head because of Jim DeMint. The GOP will turn the hearing into a circus...and that is if Obama's nominee even gets a confirmation hearing.
We have just finished the regular season of the National Football League and there are some lessons to be learned from that sport. Perform and you survive. Don't perform and you are fired.
Eight years after 9/11, the system failed. Mr. President, follow the example of your neighbor, the unpopular Redskins owner Dan Snyder, and hold someone accountable. Snyder fired his general manager and his football coach for a failed season.
You need to fire someone for the security failures. This is the second big-time security failure this year -- the White House gate crashers and now the Detroit bomber. The two agencies that have failed security big-time are the Secret Service and TSA.
The person in charge of both agencies is Janet Napolitano. Fire her and convince us that standing in long lines at airports is worth the price.
Getting mad is not enough, Mr. President. We're mad too. But you can do something about it!
Idiocy abounds. Problems in our policy abound as well. Firing Janet Napolitano is not a solution.
