Two real loser, Lieberman and McCain, siding against Obama. That's nothing new.

This is Obama's administration. No McCain's and definitely not Lieberman's. < :-)

Grab a microphone, and YOU TOO can get your 15 seconds of fame on the back of this Nigerian with fireworks on his leg.

What good would it possibly do to go firing someone? Nobody has asserted that this whole thing is business as usual, but it would be nice to have some continuity in this administration.

Is McCain still around? I thought he had some houses he could vacation at.

Firing someone over a human error is not going to help them get better at what they do, instead you get some new person in there that has to be trained all over again and is maybe even more likely to repeat the same mistake than the previous person would be...use some common sense already!!!

Was anybody fired after the shoe bomber's failed attempt back in 2001? Was it even suggested?

There may be rules in place now that there were not then, but I can't really say. But the big mess up here seems to be in giving the guy a visa. Its just too bad people have to turn this into a political thing. Those who do obviously put the security of America second. Anybody using this to attack Obama puts the security of America second.

Suggesting anything in the way of accountability or critisism of the administrations handling of affairs from 11/9/2001 up until many years later meant you were shrieked down for "helping the terrorists" and being "un-patriotic".
