Yes, Osama is dead.  Whether he was killed last week by a Navy SEAL team or whether he has been dead for several years and the SEALs were ordered in to knock off one of Osama’s many doubles that have been used to keep the myth of his invincibility alive, he is no more. And if it is true that the hit were made possible by the CIA which provided the human intelligence and was carried out by one of our nation’s elite strike teams in a country where we have no military presence, it seems to beg the question,

Almost 2,000 Detonators Found on Mexico Border

Police discovered 1,994 detonator cartridges inside a pickup truck in this northern border metropolis, Mexico’s federal Public Safety Office said Tuesday.

The truck was left in the Kilometro 20 neighborhood of Ciudad Juárez, Mexico’s murder capital and the scene of car bombings blamed on drug cartels.

A few freshmen Congressmen, including a handful of Tea Party candidates, joined with a number of Republicans and a lot of Democrats to defeat an attempt to rubber stamp an extension of the Patriot Act.   The Patriot Act, legislation drafted in the immediate aftermath of the 9/11 attack on America, was designed to give our government enhanced ability to spy on people they considered a terrorist threat. The Act allowed the government to invade America’s privacy in ways that had previously been illegal, such as roving wiretaps without strong probable cause or even requiring a judge’s consent.

Why We Have to Fire Napolitano NOW!

The Department of Homeland Security is tasked with protecting the nation and, presumably, it’s inhabitants, from all enemies, foreign and domestic.  It’s leader, therefore, should be among the best and the brightest available.  Someone from the military  or, perhaps, someone from our intelligence community, but, in any event, a seasoned professional, certainly not a politician. Former Gov. Janet Napolitano is a politician.  Not just any politician, but a politician who, as governor of Arizona, was known to be for open borders and welfare for illegals — a really terrible choice to head an agency tasked with securing our borders and keeping
