a few missteps, Obama seems to have finally found his footing in how to

security issues.

is the real threat, and moving to Israeli-style airport security (based
on detailed profiling rather than technology). But I don't know any
major politician with the cajones to take that on...

"The
system has failed in a potentially disastrous way," Obama said. "The
bottom line is this: the U.S. government had sufficient information to
have uncovered this plot and potentially disrupt the Christmas Day
attack. But our intelligence community failed to connect those dots,
which would have placed the suspect on the no-fly list."
