Obfuscation, thy name is National Intelligence!!

In the next post (below) Big Sis points out that Homeland Security is on the job 24/7, 364 days a year!!! If that statement isn't scary enough for you, here is another quote from that same interview...... Diane Sawyer interviewing Secretary Napolitino, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) James Clapper, and Chief Counterterrorism Advisor John Brennan

Keep in mind, this interview took place on Dec 21st, the same day as the twelve bomb plot arrests in London --

"First of all, London," Sawyer said. "How serious is it? Any implication that it was coming here? ... Director Clapper?"

"London?" Clapper said, before Brennan entered the conversation explaining the arrests.

Later in the interview, Sawyer returned to the subject.

"I was a little surprised you didn't know about London," Sawyer told Clapper.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't," he replied.

After the interview, Clapper's office declined to say whether he knew about the specific disrupted plot but issued a statement:

"The question about this specific news development was ambiguous. The DNI's knowledge of the threat streams in Europe is profound and multi-dimensional, and any suggestion otherwise is inaccurate."

Now then Pilgrims, I don't know about you, but having these three "see no, hear no, tell no" empty suits as our 'sentries at the gate' just scares pure hell out of me. Especially the gob'mint speak obfuscating Clapper feller.

Just in case you think Clapper's response was an anomaly, go to the original video here, zip up to the 2:50 minute mark and listen to 40 seconds of absolute gob'mint liberal gibberish in his response to Diane's question regarding home grown terrorists....

This man takes the words 'clueless bureaucrat' to a whole new Olympic level.
