Collins Report

By Kevin “Coach” Collins

The words we say come from the words we think. What we think comes from what we believe. This is why Janet Napolitano’s first remarks as Homeland Security Secretary are so disturbing.

Napolitano’s words betrayed her lack of understanding of the seriousness of her mission. Some affirmative action appointments are benign non threatening politics, but an affirmative action party hack as Homeland Security Secretary is not one of them. Barack Obama is dangerously disregarding reality. In just a matter of days Napolitano has proved she has no credentials and was named merely because she is a woman.

This week she arrived in Washington with her P.C. dictionary firmly in hand. Prompted by Obama’s insistence that even the simple declarative phrase “War on Terror” not be used in his Administration, Napolitano one upped her boss during her first remarks as HLS Secretary.

The words “terror” or “vulnerability” were nowhere to be found in her opening remarks to the House Homeland Security Committee. This makes her the first HLS Chief to leave these words out of an initial presentation. “Terror” and Vulnerability” are key concepts in national security thinking. If Napolitano doesn’t think so, she has no business being HLS Secretary.

Her spokesman assured us “it was not deliberate” thus confirming she doesn’t even think these words. Napolitano doesn’t talk the talk because she doesn’t think the thoughts. This says she’s over her head and more interested in PC-talk than protecting us.

As if to prove how juvenile and amateurish her “shop” is, Napolitano’s snarky representative added, “Next time we’ll send Cliffs Notes over with the testimony. Anyone who doesn’t understand that she’s talking about terrorism when she says her mission is to protect the American people from threats both foreign and domestic clearly needs a study guide.”

Where’s my study guide?

It’s clear that Napolitano sees new Democrat voters instead of potentially dangerous people when she watches illegal aliens pour over the borders she is sworn to protect.

For starters Napolitano is against the REAL ID system of tamper proof state driver’s licenses and building a fence to help us keep invaders out. This says much about her mind set.

This is dangerous stuff.
