1/30/10 Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) Delivers Weekly GOP Address On National Security Policy

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), ranking member of the Senate Homeland Security Committee discusses the Obama administration's failures in dealing with the Christmas Day bomber.

Sen. Collins expresses her incredulity that the bomber was interrogated for only 50 minutes before getting his Miranda rights.

Sen. Collins says, "The Obama administration appears to have a blind spot when it comes to the War on Terrorism. . . . Theres no other way to explain the irresponsible, indeed dangerous, decision on Abdulmutallab's interrogation. There's no other way to explain the inconceivable treatment of him as if he were a common criminal. This charade must stop. Foreign terrorists are enemy combatants and they must be treated as such. The safety of the American people depends on it."

There is no way in hell that this person is one of 100 U.S. senators in Congress. I refuse to believe it. Democrat or Republican does not matter; this person is unfit to run the late shift at Burger King.

She is spreading myths about the constitution. What should we do, torture a confession out of him? You make me sick Senator.

[USmellLikeObamaShit]

As long as the nuke goes off in a predominantly liberal area (perhaps NYC or somewhere in CA) then I say let the terrorists in. After that they'll revoke that load of shit about person to citizen.

[Gitano1776]

The day terrorist light of a nuke in your neighborhood we will see how accommodating the liberals will be then! You laugh now because it seems implausible. Yeah and so was 9/11. You idiots, the borders are wide open and our open shoreline runs for thousands of miles. Who is to say that nations such Korea, China or Russia would not collaborate with Iran and send a submarine to our shores and pack in a small nuke then take out Manhattan! For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom...

@vincent21212 Agreed and I come from her state!

She now wants to pass the "Kill Bill" meaning ....this Government can instantly shut off all internet access if they deem it prudent !

She needs to be voted out of office...she's become another political cancer !

[PL585]

Lmao - She had me laughing all through out. some one should make a spoof

[moorerp]

"Why so much hate for Senator Collins???... this address was great."

The people here who are calling her names are doing so because they confuse her purpose in making this "great address" (which was a disgraceful perversion of that which she claims to revere) with stupidity. She's not stupid- she's an intelligent shill for a group of demagogues that worries much more about its grip on whatever power it wields in this country than in serving its constituency. She's evil, not stupid.

[BazBro]

Why the hell can't she say the word "Administration"? She talks like a retarded idiot, and judging by her argument she really is one. She needs to read her constitution.

[TubersAndPotatoes]

She looks and sounds like an uneducated/illeterate homeless person put into a power suit, slapped some make-up on, and put onto video. That being said, she still sounds more credible than Sarah Palin. But both of them are still talking things that they don't really know much about. Populism and sensationalism is very dangerous, and many of us buy into it.

[frogger91087]

This woman is killing me. She's an idiot.

[chickenrat101]

Why is she talking like the people that watch this are retarded?

@vincent21212 LMAO!!
