Napolitano resigns as Homeland Security secretary
Last edited Fri Jul 12, 2013, 11:48 AM USA/ET - Edit history (1)

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, who has handled hot button issues ranging from immigration to counter-terrorism, said Friday she is resigning to run the University of California and its system of colleges.

"I thank President Obama for the chance to serve our nation during this important chapter in our history," Napolitano said in a statement. "And I know the Department of Homeland Security will continue to perform its important duties with the honor and focus that the American public expects."

Obama praised Napolitano's performance during four-and-a-half years at the Department of Homeland Security, noting that its responsibilities range from the Joplin tornado to Hurricane Sandy, as well as efforts to thwart terrorism.

"Since day one, Janet has led my administration's effort to secure our borders, deploying a historic number of resources, while also taking steps to make our immigration system fairer and more consistent with our values," Obama said. "And the American people are safer and more secure thanks to Janet's leadership in protecting our homeland against terrorist attacks."

One has to make allowances for the bitter old Vermontese cali primitive, whose cerebral cells no longer function the ways they used to, when she was younger and less bitchy about things.

Well, I think she's right that it is sprawling.  It's way bigger than it needs to be.  It's made up of countless bureaucrats doing countless unaccountable things.

12. So she threw Arizona to the wolves just to pull a Palin?!

Does she have any academic background at all? Or is she just going to cement UC's position as the western regional office of the military-industrial complex?

It costs Obama or somebody real money days to seal the lips of those in the know about him.

I work in the "military industrial complex".

Believe me, if I see a resume from UC, it goes into File 13.

Help keep America beautiful...deface a liberal.

The Democrat and Republican parties are simply the left and right wings of the same bird of prey.

The road to freedom is paved with dead liberals.
