Janet Napolitano: First Hired, First Fired?

Daniel J. Kelley 23 April 2009 One Comment

She is fast becoming the albatross around the neck of the Obama administration.

Former Arizona governor, Janet Napolitano, has proven as unpopular an appointee as former US Attorney General Janet Reno and she has not even ordered a lethal attack on a commune occupied by members of a religious cult or authorized the use of an armed assault team to deport a child to Cuba yet.

How does she do it?

While Reno earned her spurs by acting as former President Clinton’s second greatest enabler (the First Lady narrowly managed to hold on to the lead in that particular horse race) Napolitano has become a lightening rod by opening her mouth and inserting her foot repeatedly.

Janet Napolitano first gained notoriety as one of the attorneys supporting the efforts of a former bureaucrat turned law professor by the name of Anita Hill to derail the confirmation of Clarence Thomas as an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Afterwards, Napolitano returned to Arizona and was twice elected governor. During the 2008 Democratic National Convention, Napolitano handled her assignment of bashing her fellow Arizonan, the Republican presidential nominee, US Senator John McCain, as the latest of a series of failed politicians to hail from the state of Arizona. Napolitano predicted that history would repeat itself and that McCain would lose the election just as Barry Goldwater had been defeated in 1964.

Her analogy was not especially apt. While McCain did go on to lose the presidential race, his margin of defeat did not approach that of Goldwater’s loss to Lyndon B. Johnson. Many observers wished that McCain had endorsed a platform that resembled Goldwater conservatism. “The Reagan Revolutionâ€

But I thought she was against us having guns? Whatta moonbat.

This woman is a flaming idiot, no matter what her education and ability to win political office. Obama should call her on the carpet just to ask what the crap she thinks she is doing. She apparently thinks that she is now emperor of homeland security, not a cohesive member of this government. She probably believes she is too good for that.
This is just like putting a psychopath in charge of peeling potatoes with sharp knives in the kitchen of an insane asylum. Need I say more?

Any one who does not believe in enforcing the laws sure as hell should not be head of Homeland Security!!

You know the writer does have a point, amnesty has almost no chance of passing since nobody will believe this idiot will enforce any of the "enforcement" provisions!! For example since she won't enforce any of the DREAM Act provisions, it would give green cards to almost every illegal in the US.

Maybe it's better to leave her in there until we get a non-amnesty majority in Congress.
