Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano: dumb as a rock

Or maybe it's just that she thinks we're all dumb as a rocks.

"The system worked..." she told CNN's Candy Crowley on "State of the Union."

How did it work? Did "the system" pre-plan a faulty bomb and just let the Nigerian guy on Flight 253 to show us how clever Obama's White House is?

And then, of course, "the system" put heroic passenger Jasper Schuringa ID'd as Flight 253 Hero in place for extra measure...

But here's the kicker: Napolitano added that there was "no suggestion that [the suspect] was improperly screened."

Feel safer now?
