How come no one is upset with Obama after the planned attack on inbound flight to Detroit?

I was reading some AP articles where it said that Obama held a conference call with national security leaders and the call lasted all of 15 minutes.

Then it was off to the gym.

What is the plan was successful? and Obama was staying at his 4,000 a night vacation rental in Hawaii?

Would average America have been upset?

Please answer just the questions I posed and lets leave GW Bush out of this equation

    Obama can't really do much at this point about that plane. However, he does seem to have a lot of recreational time since he became president to do things with his wife and kids. The guy is the leader of a country deeply in debt with a fragile economy and at war. (a long war at that) He should be so busy that we rarely ever see him. But I guess that is what he has chosen to do. It is almost like the climb to the top was all it was about and now that he is there he doesn't know what to do. This might sound funny but it's kind of like a dog chasing a car and then catches it. The chase is over and now what do I do?

    Because there is nothing Obama could have done to prevent it; all of the security measures failed because a ticket agent in Amsterdam and his/her manager fell for the "Sudanese refugee" ruse and allowed the terrorist on the plane---without a passport, compounding failures by Dutch immigration officials to actually ensure that this terrorist had a passport---he didn't.

    If the plan were successful, anyone blaming Obama would have been wrong.

    Millions of people fly, ride trains, take buses, and use any other type of transportation

    to get from one place to the next, and let's be realistic, no country, president,

    intelligence, can catch all who try to make a terrorist act, so that is why no one

    should be upset with Obama, be for real.

    Mainly because the security breach was perpetrated in another country unlike the horrendous attack on 9/11 which happened on George bush's watch and caused tremendous loss of life.I know who I'd be more angry at.

    So much for loading a question!Pfft!
