INTERVIEW WITH HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY JANET NAPOLITANO
'Away From the Politics of Fear'
Janet Napolitano, 51, is President Obama's new Homeland Security Secretary. She spoke with a reporter from the German newspaper DER SPIEGEL about immigration, the continued threat of terrorism and the changing tone in Washington.
SPIEGEL: Madame Secretary, in your first testimony to the US Congress as Homeland Security Secretary you never mentioned the word "terrorism." Does Islamist terrorism suddenly no longer pose a threat to your country?
Napolitano: Of course it does. I presume there is always a threat from terrorism. In my speech, although I did not use the word "terrorism," I referred to "man-caused" disasters. That is perhaps only a nuance, but it demonstrates that we want to move away from the politics of fear toward a policy of being prepared for all risks that can occur.

Say "Liberal" and flush the toilet.
Man-made disasters do exist: like the American sheeple electing a super-majority of corrupt socialist liberals in the Legislative, then electing a disciple of Saul Alinsky and friend of the domestic terrorist Bill Ayers as President of the United States of America.

Amen! Although this does not surprise me in today's climate, I am personally very dismayed. How can anyone NOT see how anti-American this administration is???? Man-made disaster could describe a pilot error causing a plane crash NOT a murdering terrorist purposefully flying into a building to kill thousands. And why SHOULD we move away from fear? Only when we have a good healthy fear of terrorists and the lengths they will go to destroy us can we take the precautions to defend ourselves.
Thank you,

Ha ha. I see we have a Secretary of Homeland Security who shrinks from using the word "terrorism" out of an aversion for a bogeyman she calls "the politics of fear." The fact that the Director of Homeland Security is reaching outside her mandate to try and replace the perfectly useful English word "terrorism" with oxymoronic rubbish is downright funny, pathetic and infuriating all at once. If she is afraid to call terrorism by its name then how can she be the head of an organization designed to prevent it? What a neurotic. I suggest Obama get an HS Director who isn't primarily preoccupied with soothing the nerves of foreign leaders and using rhetorical platitudes to dodge issues . . . if that isn't too much to ask.
