AP - President Barack Obama prepared Tuesday to tell the public how he plans to thwart future terrorist attacks after an alleged terrorist attempt to destroy a Detroit-bound U.S. airliner on Christmas Day.
Now correct me if I'm wrong...but isn't this like giving the enemy our game-plan?
Wouldn't this info benefit them(terrorist), in devising their own plans more effective?
Is it any wonder we're in global recession. I don't think any of them know what they're doing. However, I do like Obama, despite his silly statement, but most probably he he is only going to give indications of his plans. I doubt he'll go into full detail. That said, you make a very valid point. I dunno, everything is bewildering these days.

Transparency is all very well but do you really think the public are made privy to the finer details of their intelligence strategies?

I listened to Obama's comments but I recall him giving away any secrets.
ttom500: An American ex wife is more than a terrorist deterrent, RobertC2. It not them that holds the shotgun.....but her brothers, her father, her uncles, her high school friends, her college buddies......she hits em with 'the big jerk' story and has a single tear flow down a cheek, my friend......you have big troubles waiting here.
Well with the number of US Marshalls ....onboard.....pond crossing flights....not sure you can get a ticket to face this EX, family, friends, merc employeed USNAVY SEAL Team and Local SWAT Team....but do wish you good luck.
You See .....Obama is smart.......he's giving out mis-information to keep the terrorists off what he's really goin to do .......and he fooled you too ....!

what is even more profound is that they are the terrorists, pretending they are not.

??? Didn't he start doing that in summer and fall of 2008....during the Presidential Campaign? Pretty smooth, Jvanski......pretty smooth...........
Nancy Pelosi got his number.....though......and called it....on the Health Care transparency. She wanted closed door and hidden meetings so the country would not know who is making what deals with who. )) Which is kind of like....you scratch my back and I will scratch your back.
She ran right over the top of his transperancy promise, without a blink.
