This may be the understatement of the new decade. Christmas incident was “screw up” – Obama said
Oh, a “screw up”…
Heck , at least it wasn’t serious. 
Nice work Mr President…
Come to think of it, the big “screw up” happened last November and will continue to baffle us for another 2 1/2 years.
“incident”? An incident is when a waiter spills water on your lap, not what you call a terrorist attack that failed only because of the terrorist’s incompetence!
Furthermore:
From the “Jeff Ring” urban dictionary.
A “screw up” is…
when you leave the dog food in the shopping cart.
when you bring a pitching wedge into the sand trap.
when you lock your keys in the car.
when your wife doesn’t put the seat back up when she is done.
when you buy 2% instead of whole milk.
when you leave your phone on during a meeting.
when you get in an elevator that is going down, and you want to go up.
when your puppy pees on the floor because you didn’t bring him out.
A “screw up” is not…
when the president bows to everyone.
when you call your wife your girl friend’s name.
when you run a red light and hit someone.
when an Al-Quada trained terrorist on a watch list boards a plane with no luggage, carrying a bomb, without a passport, attempts to detonate the bomb… and by shear incompetence on his part… burns his private area instead of killing 300 people.
I want to take this opportunity to thank all those who wanted this change.
Thanks a bunch and enjoy the flight.
