and they could lock the fucking front door. and keep the damn alarm on it armed.

and they didnt change procedures when incidents happened. they didnt even file reports on half of them. they admitted none. they failed to follow regs to notify the president of breaches. they let a felon wit a loaded gun on a elevator with him, ferchrisakes.

no, sorry. not one to jump on the nontroversy of the day, but i am completely, thoroughly, utterly outraged.

i listened to rachel, and thought, if one of these clowns succeeded the rift from the jfk assassination will look like an episode of seinfeld.
