The DHS is doing a wonderful job of providing a living wage to those unable to cope by themselves, or even write their own names. High-level managers are actually promoted from those dribbling goons who break your stuff at the airport.

It is not a mistake if it was your intention to screw New York and award your cronies from the begining.

How exactly is this man still a public servant? Does he actually have his own office? His own phone line? HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?

Wow. Maybe now Erie and Niagara Counties, with thier 4 international bridges, a river dividing two countries that is used every day by illegal aliens to get into this country, as well as for drug smuggling, with I don't know how many miles of shoreline on two lakes that separate two countries (ever want to smuggle anyone or anything into the country, simply leave any itty bitty harbor in Ontario and head for Wilson or Olcott, NY-you won't get stopped, searched, or even looked at), three power plants, two international airports, a major natural tourist attraction, will finally get some of the homeland security money. Wow wee.
