The Obama Director of National Intelligence James Clapper Had No Idea there Were 12 Terrorist Arrests in the UK

More Obama “Hope & Change” …

THE WTF MOMENT OF THE WEEK … Just yet another reason why the Obama administration needs to be voted out of office in 2012. Obama’s Director of National Intelligence (oxymoron) James Clapper had no idea that 12 terrorists had been arrested in the UK. Unbelievable.

In an ABC interview with National Director of Intelligence, Chief Counter Intelligence advisor John Brennan and Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano … the gang that could not shoot straight, once again showed they couldn’t. Brennan tries to peddle the notion that it was not luck that the Christmas Day bomber and Time Square bomber were not able to accomplish their mission. Even Diane Sawyer had to question Brennan’s spin and question the fact that if course it was luck that prevented these terrorist from accomplishing their mission.

Then came the unthinkable. At the 3:40 mark of the VIDEO, James Clapper was asked a question regarding the terrorism news out of the United Kingdom and the arrest of 12 terrorist that morning. Clapper had no idea what she was asking. You would have thought that Diane Sawyer asked him the mysteries of the universe.  The ABC interview took place in the afternoon, the terrorism arrests occurred in the morning. Clapper responded with dead silence and a look of, oh please get me out of here. Unreal, the Obama Director of National Intelligence James Clapper had no idea what had taken place in London.

These people are frightening. Obama’s terror folks have created an outreach program. How nice. They have people fighting against terrorism and taking on global warming, but the Intelligence director had no idea that there were 12 terrorist arrests. Could you imagine how the MSM would have covered this if GWB was still in office. Hell, the MSM holds Sarah Palin to a greater standard that they do the very people who are supposed to be protecting us.

UPDATE I: After Initial Administration Denials, Director of National Intelligence Admits He Hadn’t Been Briefed on Alleged Terrorist Arrests in London.

Great, after an initial denial and providing the lame excuse that Diane Sawyer’s question regarding the arrest of 12 terror suspects in London was too ambiguous, the Obama administration acknowledged that Clapper had not been briefed. So not only is this administration inept, they are liars as well.

After initially suggesting that Director of National Intelligence James Clapper’s inability to answer a question from ABC News anchor Diane Sawyer about the arrests of 12 suspected terrorists in London was because her question was too “ambiguous,” the Obama administration acknowledged Wednesday morning that retired Air Force Lt. Gen. Clapper had not been briefed about the arrests at the time of the interview.

“Director Clapper had not yet been briefed on the arrests in the United Kingdom at the time of this interview taping,” said ODNI spokeswoman Jamie Smith in a statement.
