Brit Home Secretary who banned Michael Savage admits she was unprepared for the job

Jacqui Smith admits she wasn't up to the job. If only more politicians would be so honest

Jacqui Smith is the disgraced former British Home Secretary who released the now famous list of “terrorists” who were to be banned from Great Britain. For some still undetermined reason, American radio talk show host Michael Savage was on that list.

Smith was forced to resign over this and other fiascos that occurred under her watch.

The same day that her replacement as British Home Secretary buried (but not scrapped) her terrorist list, Smith admitted that she had been in over her head. Way over her head.

“When I became home secretary I’d never run a major organization,” she said in an interview. “I hope I did a good job but if I did it was more by luck than by any kind of development of skills. I think we should have been better trained. I think there should have been more induction.”

What kind of crazy country would put someone in charge who has never had any experience running a large organization?

Sure glad that sort of thing could never happen in the United States.
