Another reminder of how much damage Obama has done already. Damage that will continue costing American lives even once he's out of office.
Just before that Christmas Day attack, in early November 2009, I was
ordered by my superiors at the Department of Homeland Security to delete
or modify several hundred records of individuals tied to designated
Islamist terror groups like Hamas from the important federal database,
the Treasury Enforcement Communications System (TECS). These types of
records are the basis for any ability to “connect dots.” Every day, DHS
Customs and Border Protection officers watch entering and exiting many
individuals associated with known terrorist affiliations, then look for
patterns. Enforcing a political scrubbing of records of Muslims greatly
affected our ability to do that. Even worse, going forward, my
colleagues and I were prohibited from entering pertinent information
into the database.
A few weeks later, in my office at the
Port of Atlanta, the television hummed with the inevitable Congressional
hearings that follow any terrorist attack. While members of Congress
grilled Obama administration officials, demanding why their subordinates
were still failing to understand the intelligence they had gathered, I
was being forced to delete and scrub the records.
How many lives did this cost? There's no way to know. And that's
the way that Obama Inc. wanted it. Destroy the evidence and you never
end up with the kind of mess that Hillary is in. And even if you do, the
media will shriek Benghazi and Manufactured Scandal until it goes away.
Hopefully Republican presidential candidates will pick this up and make
public statements about it forcing the media to discuss it.
