Neil Braithwaite: Obama’s 'Man-Caused Disaster' Comes Home to Roost

"Without ever mentioning 'terrorist' or 'terrorism' during her testimony, Secritary Napolitano put forth the administration’s new politically correct term for those two words—'Man-Caused disaster.' Defining the term as 'nuance,' to the German news site Spiegel Online, Secretary Napolitano further stated, '…it demonstrates that we want to move away from the politics of fear toward a policy of being prepared for all risks that can occur.' The 'T' word has been off limits by the Obama administration ever since.

"Noting the Obama administration’s new Homeland Security doctrine, as proffered by Secretary Napolitano, James Carafano, of the Heritage Foundation’s conservative think tank, may not have known just how prophetic it would would turn out to be when he stated; 'By deliberately trying not to use the T word they [The Obama administration] run a serious political risk. If something does happen, they’ll be accused of taking their eye off the ball and no amount of explanation after the fact will suffice.'”
