Former GOP Congressman Bob Barr acts as a rational voice in the petty chaotic finger-pointing that's going on amongst Conservatives. He writes,

"Yes — the not-so-bright, would-be terrorist from Nigeria got though international and domestic security mechanisms supposed to have stopped him long before the jerk lit his underwear afire before landing in Detroit. And yes — the incident happened during the administration of President Barack Obama. But the sniping at the president by Republicans, including former Vice President Cheney, and by conservative radio and TV commentators, borders on — if not passing into — asinine."

Also, please check out the comments on his blog - they're painful evidence of how disgusting Americans have become with the job loss numbers at their peak and everything else in a slump as of late. One blogger even goes as far as to compare Obama's reaction to this Nigerian terrorist incident to Bush's response to hurricane Katrina. Yes, lets compare:

And the President waits 72 hours before we hear from him...
