Did anyone see Lou Dobbs rip into Michael Chertoff and the DHS last night? The issue was how armed Mexican military and police officers are constantly crossing our border and are smuggling everything from drugs to illegal aliens? Among Lou's quotes were:

"And my god, what in the world is this secretary of Homeland of Security thinking, Michael Chertoff sounds like a precious deluded naive fool saying things like that about the border and Mexico. I mean, what is he thinking about?"

"The Department of Homeland Security is operating more like a diplomatic arm than a law enforcement or national defense agency. It is a disgrace the way it has been managed, the way it is organized and the way it is functioning. And an absolute insult to the men and women who are serving the nation in uniform protecting our borders, working in customs, border enforcement, I mean, my gosh, it's just a disgrace. And if Congress is to take up anything in this New Year, it ought to be how these fools have managed and mismanaged this department."

I usually don't have much use for Lou Dobbs, but the enemy of my enemy is my friend in this case! ^

Is this thread in the wrong forum? Lou Dobbs is talking about the border-enforcement arm of the DHS, not the aviation security part, right?

Does lou dobbs have opposable thumbs? I'm no fan of DHS, but some talking hairdo has no effect on that.

Because it's symptomatic of DHS as a whole, including the TSA.
