Slow and Unsteady Loses the Race

In a not-so-brisk departure from its previous position (which viewed SpongeJihadiBombPants as one of those unhinged loser loners), Team Obama, e'er ahead of the curve (!), has had a startling revelation (the same one that occurred to most folks days ago). From CNN:

Honolulu, Hawaii (CNN) -- In a marked shift from previous positions, senior Obama administration officials now say they are starting to see an al Qaeda connection to the attempted terror attack on a U.S.-bound airliner.

In the days after the failed attempt on Christmas Day, administration officials steadfastly shied away from linking the incident to the terror group and, in some cases, said there was no evidence of such a connection.

But one senior administration officials said late Tuesday that "some of the new information that we developed overnight does suggest that there was some linkage there" with al Qaeda.

"Some of the new information," huh? Good thing Team Obama is on the job, quick like a bunny, to race to the rescue and safeguard Americans' life and limb! (In which case, I'd think of investing heavily in the electronic wheelchair, fake limb and coffin industries--at least in the short term.)
