A bipartisan Congressional commission has given the Obama Administration an “F” for its efforts to prevent biological terrorism.  “The clock is ticking and time is running out,” the Commission reported.  “We are not where we need to be…our major metropolitan areas are not prepared.”  Congress established the Commission on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction and Terrorism two years ago.  Led by former Senators Bob Graham (D-FL) and Jim Talent (R-MO), its creation was one of the recommendations from the 9/11 Commission.  According to the newly released report, the Administration must stop acting as if the problem is too hard to fix.

The Commission’s most recent findings are eerily similar to the government’s failure to stockpile KI, and the danger to the American public is just as great. What will it take for Congress and the Administration to wake up?
