David S. Broder wrote in his Washington Post column, "The Christmas Plot appears to have shaken Obama like nothing else that happened in his first year. When he allowed the White House to quote his warning to his Cabinet colleagues that another 'screw-up' like that could not be tolerated, he seemed to signal that his benign leadership style had reached its limits."

Our national security and the safety of our citizens, and any other country's citizens in the trust of our nation while they are here visiting, should not be a partisan issue.
The leadership style and philosophy of the President and his benign, global apologetic style and trusting nature to the enemies of our Constitution abroad are just infecting his department/cabinet leadership and as a result they COLLECTIVELY have looked the other way at warnings received and not acted on valid concerns that this past Christmas could have gone very badly for Americans in Detroit... it doesn't matter that the flight was coming into Detroit from an overseas airport and that country allowed the 'alleged terrorist' into the terminal and onto the flights intially, it was our government that allowed the threats to go unchecked and not have placed him on a non-entry list so he couldn't have gotten onto that flight.
President Obama needs to realize that his magnanimous HOPES that if he trusts them and respects them and APOLOGIZES to everyone that they will stop trying to attack us is just false. He also needs to come to terms that he is the one ultimately responsible for any breeches of the national security of the US. He can delegate authority but he cannot delegate resposibility, there is a reason the POTUS is called the CHIEF EXECUTIVE - it means he is the highest authority and responsible stake holder. Take a note from President Harry Truman Mr. Obama, "The Buck Stops Here" refers to the ultimate responsibility that is left in the hands of the POTUS
One thing and one thing only makes us an enemy to SO MANY people regardless of how NICE YOU ARE TO THEM, do you know what that is my friends? It is the beautiful LIVING document that was crafted OVER 234 years ago by a convention of 13 colonies and adopted and passed as the Constitution of the United States.... By virtue of our citizenship and the values of this country, we are enemies to people whom we have no quarrel with, yet they find a problem with us because we dilute the message they are trying to spread. America symbolizes the thing they are trying to destroy and their message holds no water with us in existence...
