only those who are trying to score political points by taking the comment out of context

Officials insist the assertion, made by Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and White House press secretary Robert Gibbs Sunday on television talk shows, referred only to heightened security procedures scrambled into place after the incident.

They say it is being purposely taken out of context by partisans playing politics with near-disaster.

They note Obama ordered two reviews, of the nation's multilayered terrorist watch list system and of airport security procedures, something he clearly wouldn't do if he believed there were no flaws.

Gawd, I hate modern politics and how the media will report this "some say" nonsense as stories when they are obviously partisan BS.

Of course, the fact that bush didn't put as much money into securing our airlines as has been recommended certainly plays a part here...
