President Obama said last night that ultimately it was his responsibility to keep Americans safe from terrorists as he announced a major shake-up of US security in the wake of the Christmas Day airline bomb plot.
“The buck stops with me,” Mr Obama declared during a long statement at the White House , in which he decried the security failures that allowed a Nigerian man with known links to extremists, and with plastic explosives sewn into his underwear, to board a US-bound flight.

Wow.
I may have actually gained a bit of respect for Obama. All we ever hear about is how he blames Republicans for his problems, but here he is taking personal responsibility for something.
I never heard Bush or Cheney take an ounce of responsibility for the massive intelligence failures on 9/11.

Please dont be fooled by this pathetic display by our great leader. I find it unforgivable that he continued his "vacation" for days after the attack before making a statement to our nation.
