The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight

There's an old movie named "The Gang That Couldn't Shoot Straight".  I was reminded of that title when I heard more of the details about the roughly 1000 people who were ordered deported but who the Department of Homeland Security made American citizens instead.  The basic story is that DHS failed to match the deportation orders to the individuals because they were behind in putting finger prints into their systems.  As a result, these people ordered deported were able to apply for citizenship under a false name and get approved. 

So what was the new information? 

1.  For some of these people, the basis for the order for deportation was suspected ties to terrorist organizations.

2.  After becoming citizens, many of the people passed background checks under their new identities.

3.  A few of these people became law enforcement officers.

4.  At least five are employed by the TSA or other airport security.  They have access to planes and other secure areas of the airports.

5.  At least two of these people are employed by port security organizations.  They have access to ships including cruise ships with thousands of passengers, oil tankers filled with flammable liquids and ships with other sensitive cargoes.

Think about it.  It's not just that the Obama administration messed up by giving 1000 people citizenship instead of deporting them.  That would be bad enough.  No, the Obamacrats let people suspected of ties to terrorist organizations get inside our law enforcement, airport security and port security as well.

I guess we should be happy that the Obamacrats didn't give these suspected terrorists the launch codes for our nuclear missiles.  At least I hope they didn't give them the codes. Oh my, could they possibly have done that?
