Scary, I know. But we all agree: The recess appointment of Julie Myers to head DHS’s Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement sucks. It’s a bad move–especially now, when the White House is touting its commitment to fighting the War on Terror and securing the homeland. To quote VP Dick Cheney: “Either we are serious about fighting this war or we are not.”

Myers’ recess appointment, sorry to say, is a joke.

Debbie Schlussel, who predicted the recess appointment and stayed on this story from day one, is not happy, either. (See also Debbie’s list of War on Terror heroes and villians.)
