The outrage continues to build over a report from Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano's department that warned of the danger of right-wing "extremists," and she raised eyebrows again this week when she suggested that the Sept. 11 hijackers entered the United States through Canada.
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is under fire for what critics see as a string of gaffes, with a small but vocal group of conservatives calling for her to step down.
The outrage continues to build over a report from her department that warned of the danger of right-wing "extremists," and singled out returning war veterans as susceptible to recruitment.
Napolitano expressed regret for the reference to veterans -- but she raised eyebrows again this week when she suggested that the Sept. 11 hijackers entered the United States through Canada, even though the 9/11 Commission determined they came to the United States from overseas.

In the US, public officials who propagate known lies are summarily fired, here they become Finance Minister or work for the Globe

On the one hand you have a nice big pile of gaffes.
On the other hand you have calls for the resignation of the "Gaffer"
Gaffes / resignation.
Logical & swift & very much correct.
Correct in the US that is--here in Canada making serious gaffes results in serious upgrades in pay.
Take Jim Flaherty (please) for instance--he lies about his deficit while in charge of the cash in Ontario.
The result??
An immediate upgrade to cash boss for the whole country--the Cons were so enthralled by his cash lying abilities in this province that they considered him the man for the job, the guy to do the deed , the saviour of us all , the hombre to do in those greedy old fart trust investors--with Jim on the job they won`t know what hit them.
And so it was to come to pass , the pirate Flaherty , the gaffe-meister from Ontario , got his promotion & those trust investors got the shaft.
Gaffes + Promotion = Pension for life
Only in Canada , eh.
