F-. I'd give them something lower than an F but that wasn't one of the choices.

Bush = C
Homeland Security = D-
We have a better chance or getting hit by a meteor than being attacked by a terrorist in the US. Homeland Security is not doing their job. Look at the amount of illegals crossing ALL of our borders. And the rules put on different government agencies that cannot turn in illegals if they know about them. For example the IRS and Social Security can not turn in illegals. They just have to deal with them.

Would have to be F on both accounts. They have failed miserably. Bush put the Army on the border but I think their mission was to fill all the potholes in the trails so the illegals didn't steo in them and twist their ankles.
Homeland Security seems to be more adept at tracking down drug smugglers in Mexico and bringing them back across the border so they can prosecute Border Patrol agents for doing their job.
I know I feel much better knowing that Homeland Security is doing their part to keep me safe from those agents that actually try to stop unlawful entry.

Isn't Homeland Security an oximoron?

F for failure. Homeland Security is a joke .
The Government isn't trying to protect us . If they were they would close the borders

Bush would get an "F" and Homeland security will get a "B". We have been safe so far after Sept. 11th. Pretty hard to try and protect Americans when there are so many activists trying to keep the border open to everyone and give them rights as U.S. citizens.

i give it a C. I think our government throughout all of history would be about a C. It's pretty good but there is always room for improvement and less political corruption. Home land securtiy is good even though until the last decade i dont think it was too much of a priority since america had never really had any terrorist attacks if any. I think homeland security before terrorsits were a threat was mainly used to protect against extreme threats like communist russia and such.

Bush gets a C because not only is he screwing up but he is doing some good out there and homeland security gets an A because homeland security must be pretty good cause it is better than ever and there are no terrorism attacks lately.

Bush and Cheney get an F on everything they have tried to do or not do or even thought of doing. And the F stands for .. fill in the blank.

F
They aren't guarding us. They're sending our troops to foreign countries as a form of military foreign aid rather than defending our borders, marinas, seas, and air space. And they're only getting a C- or D at that.
