DHS to 'Expand and Formalize Coordination' on Gun Control
Janet Napolitano, head of the Department of Homeland Security, released a statement Wednesday saying she is "proud to support" the Obama administration's efforts to "combat gun violence in our country." Here's more from Napolitano's statement:
In the aftermath of the tragic Newtown shooting, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), together with the Department of Justice (DOJ), and the FBI have worked to identify measures that could be taken to reduce the risk of mass casualty shootings. In the coming days, DHS will expand and formalize coordination of ongoing efforts intended to prevent future mass casualty shootings, improve preparedness, and to strengthen security and resilience in schools and other potential targets.

Is this the same Dept. of Homeland Security that President Bush created with Republican support and we were warned by libertarians that this was a dangerous precedent that should be opposed?

Bush did some great things.
Setting Republicans back 50 years in the public eye with the Patriot act and bailouts was not some of them.

I view Bush's Presidency as about a draw.
Everything positive he accomplished was wiped out by the Patriot Act/Homeland Security, and the beginning of the bailouts. And don't get me going about the dam "roadmap to peace" pos plan for the middle east. Geez a mighty...............

"They'll welcome us with open arms..."
AK47 I believe was the arm of choice.

And it will only cost $50 billion, $60 billion tops for the entire Iraqi operation!

I strongly disagree with the draw rating but I think we have another thread on that topic. But it's pathetic to have 6 yrs of control of all three branches of federal government and get credit for a draw.
