Thankfully, just as Al Qaeda is threatening to posing our buffets and salad bars, Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano tells us they're looking out for us. Let's just hope Al Qaeda doesn't try it on their day off.
And I'm sure they're protecting us in all 57 states.Quote:
“What I say to the American people is that… thousands of people are working 24/7, 364 days a year to keep the American people safe.”
Hahahhaa, I agree with you, America is a joke. Enjoy having your phone and internet conversation monitored.
So when did AQ recruit Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh ?1984 Rajneeshee bioterror attack - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Michelle tells us to eat salads... so of course AQ targets salad bars. It's safer eating a happy meal.
Live in fear - you must all live in fear!!
Hello Steve:
As long as that STUPID name stays, you're going to get STUPID people... The FBI sucks, but what a cool name. In South Carolina, the state cops are called SLED. State Law Enforcement Division.. They sucked too, but had a very cool name... I don't know how good MI6 is, but I like their name too.

I personally think the Mossad is a cool name, they're pretty good aren't they?

Another one with a cool name you don't mess with, the Texas Rangers. And I don't mean the baseball team.
Then there is the Mounties .
I wonder if this has something to do with ginning up support for the Food Safety Act

Hello again:
Ok... So if our security depends on a better name, invent one. I opt for STIK - Super Tough Intelligence Kops. How about BENT- Bureau of Effing Neat Technology? DUFM - Don't U ***** with Me? CIC - Coordinated Information Command.
I'm done.

Recently, you've told us how important it is for the government to inspect our food, and to regulate our medicines - I suppose, so that we don't get sick or buy snake oil. THAT kind of consumable regulation is just fine with you, but they better not mess with your happy meal or your salad bar...
Once you open the floodgates to government regulation, you GET government regulation.

Did I say I opposed the Food Safety act ? Nope I did not . I was just wondering about the timing of the announcement by DHS .

Me? I'd rather have a FREE market. I thought that's what conservatives wanted too. No, huh?

If a happy meal has poison in it;or salmonella, or rat droppings then it is something the government needs to address .
If eating too many happy meals makes a kid fat... that's the parent's business.
I can't help it if you don't see the distinction .

Kid gets sick because he ate rat droppings or got fat. The government doesn't CARE who's responsible for it. It just knows that (1) it HAS a responsibility toward the kid, no matter WHERE the neglect emanates from, and (2) it's going to cost the government money irrespective of WHO is responsible.
THAT is what makes the two virtually indistinct.
excon
Please don't put me in a position to defend regulators . That is why the responsibility is with the policy makers to make the distinction.
In the cases where the happy meals are targeted ,it is the policy makers doing it.
I trust Janet Napolitano even LESS than I trust Obama.
I would trust Charles Manson more than those two, AND Princess Pelosi and Harry Ried... COMBINED.
However with that said... many of her underlings do take their job seriously. But they are compromised by high level bosses more concerned about Political Agendas and Political Correctness than doing the right thing.
Homeland security is well a joke. There are a lot of boys playing with a lot of toys and having the time of their lives. Effective to a small extent because of the increased vigilance they are etting more intel from the citizens, however the practice of curtailing the citizens rights while protecting the rights of the bad dudes is a practice that can only lead to failure (a outcome that is the preferred end point of our current administration and one of the two parties in government. Profiling and investigation of possible threats works OK it may not seem fair but it works ask the Mossad they have not had a plane fly into any thing because it was taken over by the bad guys, why? THEY PROFILE, investigate and interview. So of the two approaches of groping and irradiating or profiling and interviewing there is one that is proven to work and one that is not
Ex, you wanted good names. The CIA has come up with a classic, the Wikileaks Task Force, aka W.T.F.
You can't make this stuff up.

Thanks, NK, the url was censored, lol.
I know, I was trying to figure out the same thing. :)
I advise caution.
The reason Daniel Ellsberg is not rotting in jail where he belongs is because Nixon set up a 'plumbers' group to plug the leaks.
The plumbers thought it would be a great idea to break in to Ellsberg's psychiatrist office. Judge Byrne dismissed all charges against Ellsberg after the break-in and other 'gross misconduct ' by the Nixon White House was revealed during the trial.
