Obama has tapped the governor of Arizona, Janet Napolitano, to be the Head of Homeland Security.
I don’t know that much about Gov. Napolitano, but this blogger from Arizona does:
A couple ways to look at this one. First off, it’s a tremendous positive for my state of Arizona. Napolitano has helped bankrupt our local government, yet she is somehow the only electable Democrat in the state when it comes to national office. The loss of Napolitano almost guarantees that Arizona will retain its two Republican Senate seats for the near future.
However, Arizona’s gain is America’s loss. The new person in charge of homeland security has failed miserably to protect her own state from foreign invasion on a massive level. The fact that Obama could select someone who is perhaps America’s worst offender when it comes to homeland insecurity says more about his future amnesty plans than any speech and any denial he could ever make.
It’s hard to believe that we could have an administration more apathetic to border issues than the current one, but I think Obama is going to give it a shot.
Perhaps the next governor will do something about it.
