Three strikes and you're out, at least in baseball. God forbid that this is the way Obama goes down, but according to the National Security Adviser, a report set to be released today will "shock" the American people. Obama has missed two clear terrorist attacks, Fort Hood and the "Fruit of Kaboom" bomber on Christmas.
"That's two strikes," Obama's top White House aide on defense and foreign policy issues said, referring to the foiled bombing of the Detroit-bound airliner and the shooting rampage at Fort Hood, Texas, in November. In that case, too, officials failed to act when red flags were raised about an Army psychiatrist, Maj. Nidal Hasan. He has been charged with killing 13 people.
Jones said Obama "certainly doesn't want that third strike, and neither does anybody else."
Senate Intelligence Chairman Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said a "very comprehensive no-fly list" would be "the greatest protection our country has." In an interview, she said the definition of who can be included should be expanded to include anyone about whom there is "a reasonable suspicion." [USA Today]
