Even if you completely buy into everything the Bush Administration has ever said about terrorism, this is just insanely stupid and incompetent. And, if you don't... it's right in line with every other damn thing.

More to the point... they're not philosophically capable of doing their jobs. There's a constant undercurrent of Government Is Bad (mostly because Regulation Is Bad and Profit In The Private Sector Is Good), and so many of them really believe that Government Is Bad that, given the chance, they undermine it.

Our "government" is opposed to its own job.

Word.

If you hire someone who is passionately dedicated to proving that the job cannot be done, that person will fail. On purpose.

Would you hire a babysitter who went around arguing that children should be starved to the point where they can be easily drowned in the bathtub? A chef who believes that anyone "too lazy" to make their own food should be fed feces? In the "red states", evidently, they would. And call the results a heckuva job.
