The DHS is a shocking mess

I can't believe what kind of people are working the Dept. of Homeland Security. Debbie Schlussel first reported on it here, and Michelle Malkin's got more here. An agent for the DHS, Brian J. Doyle, it turns out, is a sexual predator, attempting to prey upon an undercover policewoman posing as a 14-year-old, and proving himself to be almost as evil as four Pakistani brothers who gang raped a 14-year-old girl in Australia several years ago.

There is quite a list of people in the DHS who've failed and betrayed the badge, but none come as close as the one who was caught in the act of being a sexual predator.

On the rest, it's an utter horror as to just how irresponsible the DHS has become, and so far, nothing has been done about it. The Wash. Post reports:
Maxwell said the immigration agency has failed to investigate more than 500 criminal complaints against its own employees for allegations that include bribery, harboring illegal immigrants, money laundering and aiding known terrorists or being influenced by foreign intelligence services.

In one example, Maxwell said, the agency employed an Iraqi-born U.S. citizen suspected of being a foreign intelligence agent to review asylum applications. "These breaches compromise virtually every part of the immigration system itself, leaving vulnerabilities that have been and likely are being exploited by criminals and adversaries of the United States," Maxwell said.

He said the agency's senior officials repeatedly ignored major national security vulnerabilities, covered them up or dismissed them.
This is concrete evidence that the DHS must undergo considerable repairs and reworkings if security is to be properly maintained for America's citizens.

On another note, Human Events Online has an important article urging everybody to tell Capitol Hill: NO to amnesty for illegal immigrants. And if you ask me, Arizona should not vote for John McCain as its representative either.

We obviously don't have the best controls regarding who gets hired. I mean, look at those 2 federal air marshals who were in the news this week. They were hired in the post 9/11 expansion:

The bigger the government gets, and the faster it gets bigger, the harder it is to be thorough in checking who exactly we have working in these sensitive areas.

You've got a very good point. I can see now why limited government can be a very positive concept. And that's something that future politicians should make an effort to work on.
