#1 At first when I watched his speach today I thought, Oh look, he's finally getting some balls. Then the sad realization sets in. This is typical pattern. He is blaming America for the bomber. It's our fault, the CIA, FBI, the systems fault the bomber got through security. Just like he called the Mass police stupid and his wife said she was never proud to be an American. He, our president is supposed to be on our side, this guy was a terrorist, now our president has turned it into being our fault, he got through because we failed. Bullshit! He needs to stand up and say,"This terrorist tried to hurt my country. I will do everything in my power to hunt down everyone involved in this terrorist act. I will not rest until everyone involved in this event are brought to justice." But of course he won't, our prez is a coward.

#2 it has been a systemic failure... a failure for the people of this country to learn the lesson that life is not always fair, that sometimes you need to take care of yourself, and the government is not the answer to all your problems. there has been a systematic failure by the central institutions of this country(aided by 5th columnists on the left) to teach common values to our youth and to set a standard where someone is responsible for the outcomes of their actions.

Obama is the pentacle of this failure and our country will remain beclowned by him for 3 more years. he is the product of a broken system that promotes failure and lionizes victimhood.

excuse me, i need to go vomit

#3 The cheapest and most effective solution for preventing these people from terrorizing America is to simply stop granting them visas to come to America. All of the 9/11 hijackers had visas and were probably having their expenses paid by some ridiculous diversity-driven foreign aid program. The underwear bomber had a visa. Take a politically incorrect turn and stop granting visas to Arabs and Muslims until the jihad is over. Stop letting innocents be slaughtered on the alter of political correctness.

#4 indeed... rather than the US having to prove they should not be let in, make them prove they should. place the presumption on 'danger' until proven shown otherwise.

#5 Systemic failure means Bush's system failed. So it's not his fault.

One - or more - scapegoats must be found.

#6 "Obama is the pentacle of this failure "

LOL! I'm sure you mean "pinnacle", but I like your version too - it is funnier.

#7 Obama should be careful with is verbiage. I suspect many Americans are beginning to suspect his election was the result of systemic failure.

#8 I thought Janet said the system worked perfectly? Maybe only 'her' system worked, the part left over from Bush is what failed?

#9 The wages of diversity: full body scans, FOREVER

Free America! End the universal pat-down! Start ethnic profiling!

For jihadists trying to bring down the liberal West, failure is success

The future of air travel?

#13 Obumble: Before I read this on TV, what does the word "systemic" mean?

TelePrompter: Systemic refers to something that is spread throughout, system-wide, affecting a group or system such as a body, economy, market or society as a whole. It should not be confused with "systematic", which means methodical.

Oblahblah: Wah?

TelPrompter: In this case it means it's Bush's fault.

Obambi: That's better. Could you post it phonetically for me?
