Quadrennial Homeland Security Review Phase III

On July 31, I blogged about the Quadrennial Homeland Security Review (QHSR) and mentioned its 3 phases. The first phase and second phases have included more than 26,000 unique participants. The third and final phase is right around the corner and will be September 28 – October 4.
The third and final National Dialogue session is focused on receiving feedback on the final proposals concerning:

-Counterterrorism and Domestic Security Management
-Securing Our Borders
-Smart and Tough Enforcement of Immigration Laws
-Preparing for, Responding to, and Recovering from Disasters
-Homeland Security National Risk Assessment
-Homeland Security Planning and Capabilities

The QHSR is a congressionally mandated review of the nation’s homeland security policies and priorities that will guide homeland security for the next four years.
Some of the discussion will be web-based and we invite you to participate.
For all you need to know about the QHSR including a video message from Secretary Napolitano, you can go to the QHSR Homeland Security Dialogue page.
Thanks,
Blogger Bob

That's nice. Why do you refuse to post, on this blog and at the checkpoints where TSA is using its virtual strip-search machines, images of the same size and resolution as seen by the operator of the strip-search machine?

Stop with the complaints about the images of the WBI. YOU HAVE BEEN SHOWN THE IMAGES!!! Your repetition serves no purpose.

All snarkiness aside, This is supposed to be the QHSRP-III section of blog.

At this point in time, I believe that most of readers of this blog think the images the WBI machines are disturbing, but I also believe that most are also tired of off-topic posting.

Personally, I would actually like to know how the results QHSRs have changed since their inception. Unfortunately, any useful information that the TSA does provide about those reports will probably be drowned out by WBI 'strip search machine' posts.

"Stop with the complaints about the images of the WBI. YOU HAVE BEEN SHOWN THE IMAGES!!! Your repetition serves no purpose."

If Bob had posted the images at the the same size and resolution as seen by the operator of the strip-search machine, he would have been able to post links to them. Since he has not done so, we know that TSA continues to be evasive and dishonest about these machines. One more reason America hates TSA.

How has the QHSR II change the way that TSA does business?

Its time to stop complaining about the WBI images. And yes it is time for TSA to be more transparent. And its tim America loved TSA.

Seriously, all this WBI posts are just making things seem absurd.

To the geniuses who think that complaints about "WBI" machines are purposeless, emigrate to a country where blind complicity with an overbearing authority is considered honorable. Otherwise, realize that the complaints that you bemoan are the will of citizens who compose this country. We as a populace, especially in the context of the Bush administrations' depravity, have a responsibility to demand candor from our leaders. The admonition by some to post "on-topic" is disappointingly petty in a time of real concern. In light of TSA's recent indiscretions, this forum ought to be thoroughly saturated with dissent.

Whether or not this comment is screened, bear in mind that we will be heard, by any means necessary.
