President Obama: Buck Stops With Me January 7, 2010 President Obama today announced new measures in his speech about the Christmas underwear bomber. The new measures will hold people accountable for intelligence failures. Until now the intelligence data and leads about terrorist plots were apparently not assigned to individuals. President Obama also said "We are at War. We are at War against Al Qaeda." He also said "We will not succumb to a seige mentality that sacrifices the open society and liberties and values that we cherise as Americans. Because great and proud nations don't hunker down and hide behind walls of suspicions and mistrust. That is exactly what our adversaries want and so long as I am President we will never hand them that victory."
