Interrupted his vacation? What about the passengers on the flight!? They're fortunate their vacation wasn't interrupted permanently! UHM MONDAY? Where was he from Friday to Monday? The incident happened Friday? Was he too busy vacationing instead of doing his job? Maybe he doesn't realize being President there is NO time totally off!! He odviousdly hasn't done his homework or any studying of this odvious TERRORIST situation. Don't blame others as they say the company is only as good as it's LEADER!

Instead of air marshals...what about having a trained dog on board that can detect such things. Or even having a dog present at each gate when passengers are boarding a plane to sniff for explosives etc. The dog would have to walk through the plane isles in flight checking up on people.:)

Obama had better be glad that it was a botched attempt. The "system" has let the American public and the international travellers down. No one was minding the embassy that knew about this terrorist, Washington has let their guard down, thinking that it won't happen again, and the international security system is a joke! When will this country and the world wakeup to the fact this group of people are TERRORISTS? They are on the move and gathering moss as they roll on. One day there will be more of them, than the good guys. El Al airlines has the right idea, and the other world airlines should follow their concept. Upon landing, this guy better be glad that the aircraft door wasn't opened and his lousy butt thrown out on the tarmack. Again, the traveling public took the matter in their own hands and saved what could have been a disaster! God bless them!

Boo hoo he interupted his vacation, maybe he needs to pay more attention as to what is going on in the world and shake up his staff!!!
