Its MY Bag - Obama on Xmas Terror Attempt

CNN: Reports that President Obama will take responsibility for the failures in the US system that nearly allowed a suspected terrorists to blow up a US place on Christmas Day. This shows leadership by POTUS, when he does the right thing this blog will praise his actions, as stated many times this blog is about results, on the whole the domestic agenda of Obama is a economic disaster, but it can be argued that Obama carried on the policies of Bush 43 from Afghanistan to rendition, thus will let off POTUS over this incident, he didn't allow the terrorists on board the plane and he was not at the CIA going over the information, but let off does not mean that if there is another terrorists attack this blog will not be highly critical of President Obama, this blog is fair but will call the President to account if there is another failure.
